how can people not understand the concept that well is an adverb and you are supposed to use it to describe verbs and good is an adjective and you are supposed to use it to describe nouns. how can they not hear that "you do that good" (or something like that) sounds bad?

Okay, so I'm obsessed with grammar. (lol) So with that in mind, I have a comma question. I'm willing to bet that you insert commas like this (Bob, Joe, and Sally) NOT like this (Bob, Joe and Sally). However, even on college brochures and school assignments, I see the use of only one comma (Bob, Joe and Sally). Isn't this incorrect? Why do so many colleges and higher-up businesses create such an obvious mistake?

So, that's when I thought maybe I'm wrong with the comma rule. Does anyone officially know?
