XKCD Joke
This article would be improved by something like 73% if a reference were made to https://xkcd.com/2995/ I don't know what category this would be, In Popular Culture maybe? I'll leave that to others 184.96.239.35 (talk) 00:37, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- Seems like a pretty feeble joke, of no obvious notability, and overlooks the fact that the Oxford comma and Harvard comma are actually the same thing. 128.86.179.69 (talk) 20:06, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- I think the joke works from the confusion involved in this comma, as explained in the article - some style manuals insist on it, others forbid it; it's named after two different schools; what if every college promoted their own version? XKCD's humor is offbeat, some people like it, some don't - just like the comma! 184.96.239.35 (talk) 15:52, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- Never heard of it. Idk why this would be included. CheeseyHead (talk) 20:42, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
