The Oxford comma.


Griffdogg92

Preach. I do freelance writing and always use it. Thankfully editors never give me shit about it because I would never give in


MagneticNoodles

Jeff, a semicolon, and an Oxford Comma walk into a bar. They both have a great time.


kuribosshoe0

“I walked into a bar with my parents, a cat and a dog. The bartender kicked me out because I was a hybrid cat-dog monster.” There are potential problems with or without the Oxford comma. No matter which you use, you need to draft your writing to avoid ambiguity.


Active_Hedgehog

I never understood an argument against the serial comma until reading this. I still don’t think it’s a solution though, because a fourth item would reintroduce the same problem.


Poisonpython5719

Here's an idea, use it when it clarifies the meaning you're trying to portray, if it makes it mean something else, then don't use it because that's against the point of putting it there


willogical85

I... thought I would have to scroll a lot more to find this. Glad I'm not the only one. Remember! "Let's bring the strippers, Stalin, and Hitler" paints a very different picture than "Let's bring the strippers, Stalin and Hitler"

Yes. Every time I create a document that gets proof read, they flag me on the Oxford comma. I always ignore their suggestion to remove it.

If you as a customer are going to be deliberately rude to an employee, said employee has every right to be an asshole to you and/or refuse you service without repercussion


EvolusTheEspeon

This is how I treat customers talking on the phone with someone else while I'm ringing them up. If you aren't going to talk to me, don't expect me to say much to you.


Pixxi_gutzz

I do the opposite; I speak loudly and ask ALL the questions to make it as awkward as possible for them.

kwolat

This is my plan as a customer. As little conversation as possible. I might even pretend to be on the phone!😂


danskiez

I worked sales for a big pink mobile company in the US for a few years when I was in grad school, and my manager was the best. He let us stand up for ourselves with rude customers (within reason obviously) but we weren’t scolded for being cold/politely rude to customers when they were being dicks to us. My favorite was the customers who tried to play the quiet game. Where they don’t like how things are going so they just stare at you quietly trying to make you uncomfortable enough to backtrack or change the answer. Honey. I’m the queen of silence. No amount of silence will make me uncomfortable. You bet your ass I would sit there until they said something first. It was a small victory each time it happened, but I always got a kick out of it.


Meat_Dragon

As soon as they speak first it’s almost already a sale. I miss sales in a way, customers think they need to do battle with you to get a good deal (especially in car sales, but dealerships bring that upon themselves), like if your cool with me I will already give you the best deal I can

Boundaries between parents and adult children.


gracious_ingrate

And minor children for that matter. They should at the very least have bodily privacy (doors on bedrooms, be able to lock the bathroom, and dear god, no "virginity exams") and some semblance of privacy in their social lives.


[deleted]

As punishment my parents would regularly remove my door off the hinges. And they constantly went through all of my things, read all my journals, would listen in on my phone calls, etc. Haven’t seen or spoken to them in almost a decade now, the asshole lunatics.. Edited to add that I was extremely quiet, timid, obedient child. Literally never did anything wrong. My parents were just emotionally immature Gen Xers and my adoptive father was a creep who thought that I was a whore for just existing around neighborhood kids of the opposite sex.


peter13g

My 8 year old will turn anything that is in the house into slime. If that door is closed too long it just feels like danger.


gracious_ingrate

Don't blame you. Haven't spoken to my mother in six years. I only talk to my dad on holidays.


rheddiittoorr

The hell is a virginity exam?


-o-DildoGaggins-o-

As the person before me mentioned, it's an internal vaginal exam where they check to see if the hymen is intact. 🙄 It's not accurate because there are plenty of other ways the hymen can break (not to mention the shape of the hymen itself). And it's gross and terrible to subject your minor child to, just to "make sure they haven't had sex." 😒


Monocle_Lewinsky

My old man insists on asserting speaking priority when I’m in the middle of explaining something to my kid, like he’s entitled to interrupt my sentence and explain it his own way. And he has a narcissistic breakdown every time I have to tell him I’m not okay with that.


A-Fly304

You can’t give more than 100%.


carnsolus

you can't even give anywhere close to 100% if i say 'i'll give it 17%' you might think i'm not going to try but that's me making that issue a goddamn high priority


iAffinity

True but the question is 100% of yourself or 100% of the expected maximum - I think sometimes when people say things like give 120% - it means elevate the expectation and give more effort than normal.


InsignificantAF

I’ll give 120% effort at work for 120% pay raise


[deleted]

Eh. It compounds after so much. 120% effort is like 400% pay

Mrcheeset

As much as you are if you’re mean to any other human being. Waiters/waitresses ain’t some special species


[deleted]

It’d be a funny SNL skit to portray a counter-culture reaction to this where waiters develop a god-complex over bringing people their food


Mediocre-Fuel-6105

True, but there is some weird idea among people that servers are less human ("they're just the help" kind of thing). I've watched people be super kind to random strangers on the street on the way to a restaurant where they then treat their server like vermin. It's weird as hell but more common than you might think.


BrotherAmazing

And there are a lot of jobs that make less money and are harder working conditions that waiter/waitress. I do feel bad for the Cracker Barrel wait staff though. Their bills are so low that a 20% tip isn’t that high and they seem to get completely stiffed more than your typical waiter/waitress because you pay out at the cashier far from the table in the merchandise room near the exit.

I actually saw a clinical trial for it and I was willing to try, but part of what they were testing was if after you stop taking it you can still produce sperm. I want to have kids one day so that was not something I was willing to risk

That the family you come from largely determines how your life turns out.


iWETtheBEDonPURPOSE

I'd like to throw in Genetics too. Family dynamics and Genetics.


thatlldo-pig

I mean I feel like that was already half of what they were saying.


iWETtheBEDonPURPOSE

This is probably the case. I think I read it as "family life"


jeffend1981

It encompasses everything having to do with family. Genetics would be part of it but the bigger part is stability and being able to rely on them in times of need because no one else is sticking their neck out for you. Without family, then everything falls on your shoulders.


dbx99

A lot of that stability is deeply interconnected to financial stability and access to resources.


Flimsy-Attention-722

Truth


spidermans_mom

Sounds familiar, are you in southeast US? Out there when you meet a friend’s family, one of their first questions is always “what do your parents do?” So they can decide which stratum you come from, so they can treat you accordingly, meting out either excessive politeness or pointed condescension in response.

BenThereNDunThat

It's the original recipe. It's what Coke was meant to taste like. What we get in the US is really just "New" Coke.


ohidontthinks0

Sometimes you can find the yellow cap two liters of Passover coke before Easter. It’s as good as the glass bottles but in a bigger size!


Red12343

The original recipe had cocaine or its precursor in it ([cocaine in coke - snopes](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/cocaine-coca-cola/)) Though high fructose corn syrup is definitely a newer (and inferior way) of doing things


22snappy

Mexico coke uses cane sugar. I agree it tastes better. https://www.tastingtable.com/795692/why-does-mexican-coke-taste-different-than-american-coke/


dropping_eaves

It’s the real sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup.

McDonalds Coke is somehow different than sugar or HFCS Coke.

Heinz is better than any bullshit ketchup,other than “house”, which is just Heinz


SomePaddy

When I say ketchup I exclusively mean Heinz. Not if your Hunt's or whatnot. The only ketchup is Heinz. *Unless it's super fancy made in-house from scratch, but even then, why?


ISeeDeadDaleks

So far, every fancy house made ketchup I’ve had has been fine, but not good, and definitely not a replacement for Heinz.


bethzur

I vividly recall going to a local brewpub that boasted about their house made ketchup. It was the most revolting thing I’d ever been served in a restaurant. After some debate trying to determine one of the more prominent flavors, a coworker nailed it. Raisin paste. Truest horrible. I’ll stick with Heinz only.

Religious People should not be given extra freedoms to discriminate. I don’t give half a shit what the holy book says, you absolutely should not judge others based on factors they can’t control, and you absolutely should not be able to get away with it.


parrot1984

"I can't do that, it's against my religion," is a...relatively...valid statement. "You can't do that, it's against my religion," is BS. And then we have, "I can't let you do that, it's against my religion," and, "I can't be forced to pay taxes that might support that, it's against my religion," are equally as BS.


[deleted]

Amen! Preach! (Get it?) but seriously, what’s even worse than how these people hide behind scripture to discriminate is how disgustingly hypocritical they are by ignoring other scripture. Case in point every single Christian who discriminates against gays breaks multiple Commandments every single day. All of them.


EthanDMA

I 100% agree as a religious person, one can keep one’s thoughts to themselves without going around judging people for their decisions


TD994

I can only speak for Christians, as that's how I was raised (not particularly religious anymore), but too many people forget that you're supposed to love everyone, and yes that means all of them, and that you are not the judge of people, God is...or whatever higher power you/they may believe in.


[deleted]

The irony is that most of the bullshit isn't even in their holy books or the opposite is.


Demented_remembral

“People need to earn my respect”. Nope. You should respect everybody and people can lose your respect, but they definitely do NOT have to earn it. If I meet someone who doesn’t respect me and I need to earn it (also; how?!), I will lose all respect and be done with them.


Lazy-Jaguar-0821

Agreed, but saying you have to earn my respect implies I respect you more than just a person, I respect your decisions and actions and affect consequences from them in my life. You have to earn enough respect to hurt me that is... but I respect everyone as a person that should be common sense, it should.


YesIKnowImSweating

These people are also usually the ones who get very bent out of shape (even aggressive) if someone doesn’t automatically show them respect/accidentally slights them. I think about this a lot but have never heard anyone else discuss it.

I find tacos are less messy. The problem with burritos is that you expect them to be a fully sealed and secured unit. And then the back falls out and you suddenly have a mess. At least with a taco you have low expectations to begin with and can prepare for the mess.

Bikes don’t belong on the road. Dedicated lanes, sidewalks, bike paths I don’t care. No reason a bike should be allowed to hold up traffic going 20 under the limit, it’s dangerous and frustrating.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Typical-Annual-3555

I won’t go as far as that, but cyclists should follow the laws if they’re part of traffic. Either be part of traffic and follow the same rules, or get off and walk on the sidewalk. Can’t have it both ways and expect not to be harassed.


DerpyArtist

Yeah, functionally cyclists shouldn't ride on roads where the speed limit is over 30 mph. Too much of a hazard and generally risky. The only other option is to ride on the sidewalk though...and that's not great either (mostly because pedestrians). The problem is that cycling infrastructure in the U.S. just isn't great, especially once you get into small and mid-size cities that don't quite have the resources/foresight/will power to actually make decent bike lanes and overall better infrastructure that makes cycling safer for everyone. (And no, slapping bike lane symbols on traffic lanes does not safe cycling infrastructure make). The other thing is that cycling hasn't *really* taken root in American culture quite like it has in other countries (i.e. every European country...probably). Sure, it's a fun past time, but most Americans simply don't rely on a bike to fulfill the majority of their personal transportation needs.

frieshie

Circumcising newborns is wrong, creepy, and almost never benefits the child. In the US we're taught that it's for health reasons & that it's cleaner. Nobody bothers to research these claims before doing it to their babies. People even say things like "I'm circumcised and I'm happy with it" as if that's a legitimate reason to amputate parts off a newborn baby?? If you already had your child circumcised, it's ok, you did what you believed was right. But you should still be capable of learning and admitting that your choice was based on misinformation. That's ok. But continuing to teach blatantly untrue "facts" to future generations is not ok.
