multiple kinds of same category

Hi,

1. I think I know what order the adjectives go when thery are placed in front of nouns but what do we do when there seem to be a multiple of items for one category? Should I use the comma (commas) or the conjunciton "and"? What if there are more than two pertaining to a category like "opinion"?

an intelligent, energetic person or an intelligent and energetic person

a funny, popular girl or a funny and popular girl

2. How about this? Do you need any separations there? If you do, what medium?? would you use? commas or and?

... meet your penpals in the smart cute funny sweet popular boys club

(found the partial sentence when I googled for the order of adjectives)

3. Did I write the underlined phrase (ie, "a multiple of items") correctly?
