I think I just found out that while I'm pro serial comma in English, I'm against it in Hebrew.

Here's why.

"Anyhow, Vasily's son, the Czar Ivan, complained afterwards, that the Boyars, along with Dimitri, his father's nephew, "plotted many deadly death conspiracies" against the father, and even the grandfather himself "was talked slander and admonishment about". (Kliuchevski, A History of Russia, translated into Hebrew from Russian)

Seriously.

Those aren't serial commas. A serial comma (why are they also called Oxford commas?) is the comma just before "and" in a list of more than two items (e.g. in "my parents, god, and ayn rand" the serial comma is the second comma of the phrase). Those are just excess punctuation. You could lose half of them and improve the text.

There are no serial commas in there, Shir. But there sure are a lot of other commas, most of which are necessary. Two of them aren't. One of them is definitely wrong.

Seriously? Not even one serial comma in there? (I know not all of then were, and still).

I should really get some sleep.

Also, in case it wasn't obvious - I was going for a very direct translation from Hebrew into English, in order to keep up with the commas. Of course, it affected the whole text. It looks better in Hebrew, though.

In my family we call a cute little puppy dog who's trying to seem badass a "Fierce Boy-nas'-di-us". It oomes from one of us kids mispronouncing "buenas dias" but I'm not sure how it evolved to mean a cute dog trying to look mean.

with my BFF, "looking for Ed" refers to using the bathroom, and we will ask each other, "where's Ed?" to ask where the bathroom is.

it all happened when BFF was in high school, and a friend of hers, K, really had to use the bathroom, so they pulled over for her to pee on the side of the road. It happened to be near their classmate Ed's house. So, as K was peeing, she was hissing "look for ed! I do not want ed to catch us"

Had a meeting with my advisor that actually went OK. Today we were just going over math stuff, not writing stuff.

Oh, and I have sort of completed somewhere around 60 job applications. (I lost count a little bit, because the way I'm keeping track of them leads to a few duplicates if I try to just count. But it's somewhere between 59 and 61.)

But it's somewhere between 59 and 61

That's a very mathy thing to say. I don't see between as =, and I'm thinking integers, so I wasn't sure why you'd written it that way, but I need to parse more flexibly.
