* From beginning to end, ''[[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|How to Be an Accordion Player]]'', Berner's instructional booklet and an '''essential''' literary introduction to the fine art of being an accordion player, is this.
* "Song to Reconcile", easily fulfilling your black humor and (quite literally) [[Dead Baby Comedy]] quota for the day, gives us this gem:
{{quote| "Well, you don't have to love each other, but the band requests that all killing be suspended for the duration of the event. Let's pray to God the human urge to have a good meal, get fucked up and fuck someone hot is stronger than the human urge for revenge. Then maybe we'll get them together... Maybe they'll piece it together. I'm just the accordion player, so I. Don't. Know." (cha-cha-cha)}}
* Geoff and Diona's rendition of John Prine's classic country duet "In Spite of Ourselves" from ''Live in Oslo'' is as funny as it is oddly heartwarming.
* "Don't Play Cards for Money with Corby Lund" is Geoff's warning to whomever would challenge his artistic colleague Corb Lund to a game of poker. '''[[Foregone Conclusion|You will lose]]'''.
