So, I was walking around with a few Russian friends, and all of a sudden they start to talk in the little English they have picked up. I had my mp3 player at the time, which happens to have a microphone on it, so I asked them to repeat.

Alone, it's very childish humor, but when put with the fact that they speak almost no English, it's hilarious.

They are referring to your blatant comma abuse, which is going to cause Little Billy the Comma to grow up deranged and unbalanced.

It sounds like a recipe for gormet Vecoriwen!

My parents were in a botanical water garden in the south of France. They were there for some sort of love rally I suppose. As I remember being told they were stuck in a massive crowd for about 9 or so hours. Well as you can imagine they got prettyu horny and hot. And that is the story of how I was concieved.

Yes. You know how it is. When you're horny you're horny. Something has to be done.
