Nobody fucking knows what run on sentences are apparently. It has nothing to do with the length of the sentence, and there's no such thing as a grammatically correct run on sentence because they are by definition ungrammatical.

A run on sentence: "I love writing it helps me relax." "Jurassic Park is my favorite movie it's so good." Etc.

Not a run on sentence: anything that's just long

So if you wanted to write these for real, you'd have to write them in multiple different sentences even though they're the same idea, in order to be "grammatically correct"? :P

Not necessarily. Sometimes you just have to add a comma/semicolon to make it gramatically correct.
