The picture is full of shit. The top picture should be used for the bottom and the top.

I got the impression that you were against the Oxford Comma. Aren't you?
Rules are only rules if you choose to acknowledge their existence.

The Oxford comma isn't a rule, it's optional.

Also, I'm sad no one laughed at my little joke.

She would always write CF(Comma Fault) on my papers and now that's why I'm heavily anti-Oxford comma.

Plus it's optional anyways. You don't HAVE to use it.

The "and" is a conjunction. The pause from the comma just seems unnecessary when you have the and to separate the end of a list.

Screw the oxford comma.

The image states precisely why the Oxford comma is correct. If it's overkill then valid information is overkill.

You know the Oxford comma version of that sentence could be read as addressing JFK though because of the extra comma.

"I" needs a capital letter. Normally I need one.

That's not how it works. Type 1 is also inherently predisposed. The issue here is whether it's triggered, which is less likely than type 2. So it's very likely a family wouldn't have a history of it. It can skip a generation. My grandfather had it.
