I remember getting this when it came out in 1996.  My favorite is still #46:

If an advisor says to me "My liege, he is but one man. What can one man possibly do?", I will reply "This." and kill the advisor.

Read quickly, my friends.  After I have committed the list to memory, I shall destroy it, so that no one will know the diabolical secrets of my long, dark reign.  With the wisdom of The List, I shall rule with an iron fist, FOREVER!!  BWAHAHAHA!!  BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!   Wait, I probably shouldn't tell you guys my sinister plan, huh?  This list stuff is hard.

Dude, this list stuff is HARD!  My henchmen failed to remind me of rule twenty.  Why am I surrounded by frickin' idiots?

I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do.

Just for that, I have prepared for you an unnecessarily exotic and easily escapable death!
