Be it resolved

The xkcd.com site is a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language ... sometimes as simple an image as this text included here.

The euphoric bliss of words

An amazingly lively defense of the liveliness of English.

Comma chameleon

Following the dictum of "comma for clarity," Oxford University has dumped the "Oxford Comma."

Here’s an explanation from the style guide: “As a general rule, do not use the serial/Oxford comma: so write ‘a, b and c’ not ‘a, b, and c’. But when a comma would assist in the meaning of the sentence or helps to resolve ambiguity, it can be used – especially where one of the items in the list is already joined by ‘and’ [for example]: They had a choice between croissants, bacon and eggs, and muesli.”

A video (with NSFW lyrics) uses the Oxford comma as a metaphor for the small stuff one should not sweat.
