I agree with The First Avenger being first and that it's different from AKA I Want Your Cray Cray and Karen because of one thing: no context is needed for the present day scenes.

The present day scenes in those two episodes require the context of the previous episodes to be understood, but The First Avenger was written in a way that it can be someone's first MCU film. And since the main events of the film are all set in the 1940s, to me it makes sense that you'd watch it first. But I think both ways are correct.

I agree about The Incredible Hulk being after Thor, though. Coulson leaves in Iron Man 2 which leads to the one-shot and then to Thor.
