You forgot that Niko flips off taxis that don't pick him up, which I just noticed, and find hilarious.

I think this is really funny, and the "Giving money to hobos thing made me think of something i did once

I bumped into some hobo guy walking down the street, he swore at me, and i just punched him and ran off.

If you look to the right when in Brucie's helicopter it says something like "This helicopter may crash but we don't really care if it does." I felt so proud when I discovered it
