I'm sure someone here has a million.  

I think my most common pet peeve is people using random examples of performance to say something definitive about a system.  
For example:
Battlefield 3.6 is only 900p on PS4, therefore PS4 does not support 1080p.
Halo 3.5 is 1080p on Xbox One, these two facts lead me to the truth that Xbox One is more powerful as it's the only console capable of pulling of 1080p in games.  

I see this kind of thinking so much.  The average person does not know that there are a billion things that affect performance from hardware to developer choice.  Even on enthusiast forums like Era, this kind of discussion still comes up.
