It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
No serial, it's often redundant to "and."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My former boss used to fastidiously remove my Oxford commas because they were wrong, telling me she could see how I'd make that mistake, having been educated in England.
Which meant I even more fastidiously put them in.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I like serial commas. Sometimes I leave them out, to prove that I can change, but then I have to grit my teeth and go back and obsessively put them in.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yay, serial commas!!
My organization's tagline does not have one, which makes me sad and/or cranky.

SERIAL COMMAS 4 EVAH!!!!1!
Here's the story...of the dying TV theme song
Shows such as ‘Lost,’ ‘Grey's Anatomy’ are cutting straight to the plot...
“It’s a rarity today,” TV historian Tim Brooks said of the catchy, tuneful opening. “It’s kind of like the Broadway musical producing hit songs — it just doesn’t do that anymore.”
I place the blame squarely where it belongs: Firefly.

Yay for serial commas.
I have imposed them on our monthly journal. Fear me!
