Commas, you have to love them, almost, as much as... ellipses.

I find misuse of commas a minors annoyance compared to the use of twit talk and texting abbreviations outside of their native environment.

Exhibit A in the "Why We Need the Serial Comma" debate is the book dedication that read, "To my parents, Ayn Rand and God."

While it could be argued that anyone who dedicates a book to Ayn Rand and God has more serious problems than merely punctuation, I would suggest that a couple of semi-colons would've worked at least as well (if not better) in that sentence.

I just cannot see God doing it with Ayn Rand, let alone impregnating her

Or an immaculate conception. (which doesn't mean what you think it means)
