1) If you have a john that nobody is using, check if it's full of dynamite, because no one will sit on those

2) Children are great at helping with demolition and kidnapping

3) The GC corporation sucks

4) Don't pester crooked politicians with questions or the crooked cops will shoot you and plant a gun on you

5) Cities have massive underground levels where you can make your own society

7) Not leaving the Bronx is a matter of principle, dammit

8) Cut back on the sugar, it will make you crazy

9) Supremely successful criminals like to make out with ugly women

10) Making an angry face and pumping your arms forward while you fire a handgun will cause your bullets to destroy vehicles

- A shotgun blast to the side of a van shall make it explode into flames. Ditto with model Porsche 911's.

- Being shot in the back several times with a Beretta Submachine gun is NOT fatal (see Giovanni Cianfriglia's character).

- Stepping on rails with a battery hooked up to them will cause fatal electrocution to both you and the person next to you at the exact same time, even with you walking on different sides of it, but only once you near the battery.

- Collections of model buildings have the habit of corrupting Vice Presidents and making them go power-hungry

- Ceremonies to commemorate the construction of a children's hospital warrant live news coverage.

- A group of terrorists can kidnap the president of a corporation and murder dozens of security guards and NYC police without the National Guard showing up to restore order.

- Massimo Vanni is psychic and can react to getting shot prior to anyone pulling the trigger.
