Now you've done it. That's the verboten Oxford comma you just used. Even Oxford doesn't use it anymore, sometimes. The Associated Press style—the standard style for journalism—does not use the Oxford comma. You won’t find it in most newspapers or in magazines anymore.
Even Oxford leaves out the Oxford comma sometimes | University Marketing Communications
(The Oxford comma, also known as the serial comma, is a comma placed immediately before the coordinating conjunction (usually "and," "or," or "nor") in a list of three or more items. )
