I could swear Silver Dagger once got into Doctor Strange's house by messing around with the wood on a windowframe, instead of trying to get through the window or its attendant enchantment.

Well of course it makes sense that even Doctor Strange's loving house jobs. Guy just can't catch a break.

I seem to remember Luke Cage breaking Doom's armour, designed to withstand partical beams, explosions, etc... by just hitting it.

Specifically, he picked one spot on the armor and just kept hitting it, over and over, until it broke.

Even Doom's reaction was 'poo poo, no one ever actually tried THAT before.'

You would think repeated pinpoint attacks would come from Torch's heat rays or Cyclops, but welp.

I can't remember the issue, but the original Lee/Kirby run on F4 had an issue where The Thing beats the ever loving poo poo out of Doom and crushes his hands. He did try it and it worked.

I prefer the ludicrous example from the Justice League Elite annual where the JLA and the Justice League Elite are fighting two different cosmic threats, and the Flash is on both teams. So he's literally in TWO life or death struggles and he's taking part in both by running between two different areas, changing costumes as he goes.
There is a point where a portal is opened that shows both groups, and the Flash is able to look at himself as he goes between both groups.

The Flash was literally in two places at once.

Doesn't Cap's shield absorb all force or something so he should just be able to stand there while the pretty light bounces off his shield?

Nothing so Silver Age DC. It's just made of an alloy that absorbs force better than pretty much anything else, but it doesn't diffuse it completely.

Flash v2 #138
The little blue sparkly dude is Krakkl, dude made of radio waves from a planet of similar guys. The big Metron looking dudes are forcing them to race, whoever loses has their home planet destroyed and the winner goes on to a new race. Krakkl was the reigning champion and immediately before this he admitted to Wally that he'd won all his races by having his people run at the same time he did, so he got their speed. Flash turning on all those radios was so Krakkl's people could use them to travel to Earth, so they'd survive.

In fairness I think the only thing that I find dumb about it (and, unfortunately, so dumb that it completely ruins the whole sequence for me) is that everyone on Earth has to start running around for it to work. Like, lazy people, or the disabled, or nihilists, or any number of villains are going to not comply with that, for any number of reasons, and it just feels so goofy and could easily have been written around. It's a neat idea that the Flash can somehow outrun instantaneous teleportation by tapping into the SPEED FORCE, but the Peter Pan thing poisons the well to me.
