5) Life. It happens.
This certified Bergism is as much a mantra as a rule. Offering great flexibility in the situations within which it is appropriate to use, you can think of it as a synonym for happiness, despair, resignation, excitement, or for capturing a million other vibes.
In the end, its best to simply understand, that life does happen. So get the fuck after it. (see rule #8)

Rule #4
4) Keep Moving.
Good technique to employ when dealing with overzealous venue security.
Real life exchange: "Um, you can't stand here, you're gonna need to move over there. (Minutes later...) Well, you did a good job moving from here to there, but I'm gonna need you to keep moving.... like to way over there."
Also makes a great companion rule to rules 1 & 2. You'll want to onesie/twosie & then just keep moving. But if security starts to yell at you, remember rule #3....

Rule #3
3) Safety Third.
Pretty self explanatory. When out raging, always remember to be safe. "Safety First" kinda takes all the fun out of it. "Safety Second" just sounds silly. But, "Safety Third!", well, that just makes sense.

Rule #1 & 2
1) Onesies
2) Twosies
The 2 simple rules that started it all. It can refer to a multitude of situations, but is most commonly used to describe the passing around of credentials when a group is lacking enough stickies or lammies to credential everyone involved.
For example: "Shit, we're only on the list for 2 at Bassnectar!" "Um, we'll just do the ol' onesies/twosies." "Oh, Fowsh! You two go in, I'll wait for you here."
