Spent way too long trying to see how oxford comma was relevant.

It says Oxford Coma. So it's coma (someone who can't be woken up) vs comma (punctuation).

It took me way to long to notice the missing m.

I'm still not seeing how that's relevant.

It's a common trope to joke about the use/misuse of the Oxford comma - Examples .

So the responder is extending the joke to make it the Oxford "coma". Since the original person was asking for a long sleep in between life and death, a coma sorta fits their description.
