I was trying to decide whether or not to include an Oxford comma in the title. I ultimately relented. I am not usually a proponent of the Oxford comma, though I understand why people use it. Maybe I’m just stubborn, or maybe it’s an aesthetics thing for me, but I don’t particularly like it. I guess I’ll start using it though as it becomes more conventional. Kind of like how I used to not like the designated hitter (I still don’t) but have begrudgingly started to accept it (yeah yeah, I’ll stop).
As the Chicago Cubs look to secure a series victory against the Milwaukee Brewers tonight, I’m again thinking about all the trolling and crap that we Cubs fans have had to take, which doesn’t really have anything to do with the Oxford comma.
