The Fuzzy Boots Corollary - S1-E3
Revealing mistake: When everybody is on their laptops at the beginning of the episode, you can clearly see in many shots that their screens are black. (00:01:20)
The Hamburger Postulate - S1-E5
Revealing mistake: When Penny leaves when Leonard and Leslie are in his room, she opens the apartment door and the hallway is isn't present. It's just a chipboard wall. (00:09:50)
The Cooper-Hofstadter Polarization - S1-E9
Revealing mistake: When Leonard and Sheldon are fighting near the end they bump into the wall, which visibly shakes. (00:15:40)
Revealing mistake: In the scene where Leonard is supposedly playing Halo 3 against somebody in Copenhagen, there is no ethernet cable or wireless adapter connected to the Xbox 360 (one of the originals without wireless inbuilt), which means that there is no way he can be playing online with someone in another country. (00:09:00)
Chosen answer: It does. The variable cleanliness of the cab and the habit of taxi drivers to engage customers in small talk would be too much for Sheldon to handle, and not an option for him.
