- Acceptable Targets: Usually only goes after these.
- Contested Sequel: There are about as many people that think The Wedding Dance of the Widow Bride is an improvement over Whiskey Rabbi as there are people who don't.
- Crazy Awesome: Expect anything less from the writer of How to Be An Accordion Player? [1]
- Crosses the Line Twice: Berner's a regular multiplication table when it comes to this. Merely crossing it twice is his default setting.
- Ear Worm: "OH COME AAAAAAAAAAALLLLLL YE BOLD CANADIANS..."
- First Installment Wins: We Shall Not Flag or Fail... does this for anyone who didn't appreciate his genre shift to klezmer.
- High Octane Nightmare Fuel: "Queen Victoria". Leonard Cohen's original was already squicky enough, but... man.
- Some Anvils Need to Be Dropped: The point of "Official Theme Song for the Vancouver / Whistler Olympic Games (The Dead Children Were Worth It!)".
- ↑ Contains no actual information regarding how to play an accordion, just the essentials such as what accordion to pick, how to master the art of gutter swimming, drinking tips and anecdotes about Josef Stalin.
