actually the places he uses commas are completely appropriate and grammatically correct and many published authors use massive run on sentences, also these aren't exactly that long compared to some sentences that can be considered grammatically correct.
If I have helped in anyway at all a +rep will be appreciated lots

I took a look at my reflection in the mirror.
It smiled at me.

My friend left the elevator and said "You two take care!"
I saw no one else in the elevator.

I'm just gonna invalidate that on the basis of your grammar.

there are no discrepancies apart from my laziness at capitalising the first letter of a sentence, go **** yourself.

Run-on sentences are grammatically incorrect... You see them in stories because authors don't have to follow strict grammar regulations in books.

You can make those sentences grammatically correct though through the usage of hyphens, colons, and semicolons.

run on sentences are completely grammatically correct, I have had many sentences marked correct even though they went for 3-4+ lines because of correct grammar.

"A run-on is a sentence in which two or more independent clauses (i.e., complete sentences) are joined without appropriate punctuation or conjunction. This is generally considered a stylistic error, though it is occasionally used in literature and may be used as a rhetorical device. "

"When a person learns to write English sentences and compositions, one common problem is writing sentences that are too long. When a sentence ends too quickly, it is called a sentence fragment. When a sentence has too many ideas and runs on too long, it is called a run-on sentence."

Run-on sentences are grammatically incorrect. I'm not sure where you learned your grammar from, but seriously, this is a common error.
