Where have the commas gone?

Creative writing from a high school senior:

"Punctuation is a serious problem, too. Imagine if we all took your easy way out, you punctuation slackers. Something as simple as a comment on the weather could turn into an insult. 'You look ugly today huh' is very different from the intended, 'You, look! Ugly today, huh?'"
