 The First Lesson I learned at Burning Man 2005: Never climb a tower in platform boots and a prom dress. *Photo by Margaret. |  Don't use the bathroom if the guy that just went in has crabs. |  Never handle a stuffed-animal unless you know where it has been. |
 Always follow the doctors orders. |  If someone asks you if you want Tri Tip and a beer bong, say "yes". |  Adding water to a slip-and-slide in the desert does not make the ground any softer.
|
 Mirrors do lie.
|  Being lost can be a good thing.
|  If the course description says: Advanced Pole-Dancing, believe it.
|
 Keep your clothes handy in case a monster attacks your camp.
|  Never give a chef advice about cooking.
|  You don't have to be gay to like gay-porn.
|
 If you break your boobs at Burning Man, don't worry, you can get a cast.
|  Don’t make bacon if you are wearing a vinyl dress. |  No matter what you do, some guys will never look you in the eyes. |
 Don't let male cops wearing skirts spank you. |  No matter what your friend says, never apply super-glue to your breasts. |  Don't lock yourself in a glass box in the desert for a week. |
 Don't forget your batteries if you go for an Audio Playa Art Tour. |  All sweets are not fattening. |  Don't try to ride a bike in thigh-high platform boots. |
 It's not silly to believe in Santa Claus. |  What comes after the words: “We need to talk” isn’t always bad. |  You can never have enough Q-tips when you are camping. |
 Real men take foot-baths. |  Just because you are alone, doesn't mean you are lonely. |  Some things really are free. |
 You won't get a ticket for "drinking in public" if you are wearing a Cookie Monster. |  It is possible (and delicious) to consume bacon at every meal. (Especially at Camp Bacon!) |  Glow-sticks keep friends together. *Photo by Margaret. |
