When attacking an evil adversary, you will appear to be making progress, only to be hit with a seemingly insurmountable setback. Don't worry, though: the longshot will always work in the end.

Bullets never ricochet off anything.

Heroes cannot receive debilitating permanent injuries.

It is frequently prudent to wear sunglasses in very dark areas whilst searching for villains.

Villains are always disappointed that they cannot win you over to their side.

In horror movies:
Saying "I'll be right back" is an automatic death sentence.
Ditto going upstairs.
Ditto having sex.
Ditto separating from the group to accomplish a mission alone.
Ditto being black.

People from different cultures are completely repulsed and horrified by alternate music genres.

You are not permitted to finish off the villain without first pausing to deliver a snappy comeback.
