Grammar isn't everyone's cup of tea ... but it's something I spend a lot of time thinking about.

If you don't know what an Oxford comma is, it is the comma before the word "and" at the end of a list.
I love it (and use it). I think it adds clarity in most situations, and while some lists make sense without it, it is helpful if not necessary in many lists.
