I'm starting to think I don't like it, because it sounds so snobbish when you call it "the Oxford comma."
Can't we switch back to serial comma?

Well, the one that snuck through - there was a woman named Mrs. Pensig, and in the magazine, it came out with a slight transposition so it came out as "Mrs. Penis G."

When people don't know the difference between "masterly" and "masterful."
You'd have a "masterly" piece of writing, but a boxer in the ring would be "masterful."
I could go on about "lie" and "lay."
It's "lie," "lay," "lain," and "lay," "laid," and "laid."
Easy!
I could add that "lie" is an intransitive verb meaning "to recline," and "lay" is a transitive verb meaning "to put something somewhere, to place or set."

NO.
Hahaahahaha!
I can forgive typos and stuff. But I can't handle bad writing, no.
