Yah! You are listening! And yes, I do make mistakes and sometimes I don't get to correcting, though I try. You'll understand if/when you have kids, and typing on the computer becomes the third or forth thing you do at once. And you develop a sense for the spoken/written word. But I digress. I did err.
It is a shame you still stated this, though. I wasn't going to comment, but since you are paying attention, this is really not a proper sentence. Minimally, I'd suggest you have two independent clauses and could benefit from a ";":

Also, you seem to have fallen in love with the comma. Now, should you progress to understand the Oxford comma, I won't be sad. But, you do use it too much in your posts. Sure, I get that Bill Shatner gets away with speaking like you type, but BigJake, "I served with Bill Shatner. I knew Bill Shatner. Bill Shatner was a friend of mine. You are no Bill Shatner."
In addition, I do have to say, I was a little dumbfounded by this post:

Point of the thread is, what sort of frankenboxster can you create!

I'm not following the rationale of your comma usage here. Also, "I then took to photoshop.", while dramatic doesn't really follow. There is too much filler one needs to apply. But, let's say you are trying to be colloquial. Fine. Let it be. But, "I present to you." really is an awkward sentence. I do think you mean to use an ellipsis... which I am partial to. And, your last sentence - again, I get it if you are trying to be colloquial - you could use better phrasing. I'd suggest: "So, the point of this thread is - Show me your frankenboxster!" Personally, I'd accent it with a Cuba Gooding meme from Jerry Maguire, but I like to reference.
