Grenades. A hand grenade has a kill radius of 5 meters and an injury radius of 15 meters. You're not going to toss one around a corner and survive.
It's Always Sunny makes a joke about this. They throw a grenade in a car, expecting it to be a huge awesome fiery explosion.
Instead, "poomf" and the car alarm and airbags go off with a little bit of smoke.

Bullshit happy endings.
When they are kissing right after waking up with that morning breath.
The worst is when a show or movie establishes that X can't be done, because Y. Then in a later scene X is done without addressing anything about Y. It's actually pretty common, especially when run time needs to be padded with a side quest.
I have grown to really fucking hate deus ex machina in any form. Luck is always a factor, but c'mon. It usually comes down to lazy writing and they just couldn't be assed to come up with an explanation.
