Oxford Comma


Dear James,
Yesterday I was reading about this blog called stuffwhitepeoplelike.com (don't even think about clicking on that link, it's far too entertaining and you'll never come back again) and it said something about how one of the things that white people like the very very most is Vampire Weekend. You can see why: the nice sweaters, the university education, the neat haircuts and the overwhelming sensation that at no time are they likely to board your super long tanker and hold all your crew to ransom.

Another thing white people like is clever pop videos which try to look like fillums. Pop videos are for stupid kids, but if you divide them into chapters and shoot them with a single camera shot it's almost the same kudos as sitting through Bergman's The Seventh Seal and in a fraction of the time.

See that guy who falls over at the end? I bet he did it on purpose. And is the last line "Littlejohn he always tells the truth"? Is this a reference to forthright Daily Heil hack Richard Littlejohn? If so, can I think of a pay off for this post after looking at Littlejohn's Wikipedia page? No.
