The commas aren't bad. It's the fact that they're put in the wrong place.

Just like you guys use the wrong standard units of measurement. ;):p

Reminds me of that company COBY. Their font and logo look exactly like SONY, and I see people fall for it everytime I'm at Best Buy :)

"Look! This SONY CD player is $59, but this one is only $19.99! Let's get that one!"

Ughhh.

I once bought some Coby headphones because they were cheap and the only brand the bookstore here sells. I bought them and they broke within 10 minutes. I took them back and got some replacements. They were broken when I got em. I would have taken them back, but I was seriously angry and just decided to flame them on here. Coby is SUCK.
