It really cracked me up that they left their helmets on.

Grammatically, there are various ways of describing what’s going on. One helpful set of terms is essential vs. nonessential. When the identifier makes sense in the sentence by itself, then the name is nonessential and you use a comma before it. Otherwise, no comma. That explains an exception to the only-thing-in-the-world rule: when the words “a,” “an” or “some,” or a number, come before the description or identification of a name, use a comma.
A Bronx plumber, Stanley Ianella, bought the winning lottery ticket.
When an identifier describes a unique person or thing and is preceded by “the” or a possessive, use a comma:
Baseball’s home run leader, Barry Bonds, will be eligible for the Hall of Fame next year.
My son, John, is awesome. (If you have just one son.)
But withhold the comma if not unique:
My son John is awesome. (If you have more than one son.)
The artist David Hockney is a master of color.
The celebrated British artist David Hockney is a master of color.
And even
The gay, bespectacled, celebrated British artist David Hockney is a master of color.
(Why are there commas after “gay” and “bespectacled” but not “celebrated”? Because “celebrated” and “British” are different sorts of adjectives. The sentence would not work if “and” were placed between them, or if their order were reversed.)
If nothing comes before the identification, don’t use a comma:
The defense team was led by the attorney Harold Cullen.
–The Most Comma Mistakes – The New York Times’ Ben Yagoda dissects the most common grammatical mistakes in using commas.

About me
Little known fact: I am the most awesome person you will ever know. We don't even need to know each other IRL for this fact. Some of my best friends I have made on the internet. Some from when I played WoW (and few of them still play, yet we are even closer than when we did. Some, other aspects of the internet have given me. Either way, I am fiercely loyal and full of love for my friends and the world at large. I have Social Anxiety, but I get by alright.
I just want to see you smile <3
I am a graduate student, working on my Master's degree in CRM.
I work when I'm not at school.
I am a huge nerd, geek, dork, goof, whatever label you wanna throw at me, I'm sure I'll fit it somehow (because everyone is a little bit of everything!).
My interests vary widely and on a daily basis. Who knows what you'll see here, but trust me, I appreciate every follower I get!
