Writing. Specifically, tech writing. I've got an intuitive sense for it, but other than business communication and the occasional bit of internal documentation I don't have any desire to do it professionally.

I get along great with our tech writer, though, since I'm the only other person at the company who can hold a discussion about the Oxford comma.

You can rip my Oxford comma out of my cold, dead, and grammatically-unambiguous hands.

Your opinion on the Oxford comma?

[-] spauldo@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

I'm for it, mostly because that's how I was taught to write in school.
