What does the AG community think about the oxford comma? for those of you who dont know about the oxford comma, it is the comma that comes right before a coordinating conjunction such as "and" or "or, usually in a list.

for example: i need bread, milk, and butter.

many intense grammar nazis argue that the oxford comma is unnecessary and shouldn't be used. so the previous sentence would become this:

i need bread, milk and butter.

even though the oxford comma is considered "grammatically correct".

Do you guys think the oxford comma is necessary?
