Examples of the Idiot Plot in Web Original works include:

Lampshaded in the Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series spinoff Cr@psule Monsters:

Alex "Most Definitely Not a Villain" Brisbane: Step on the map.
Yugi: Make me.
Alex Brisbane: Oh, come on. I'll be your friend.
Yugi: Look. There's no way I'm stepping on any freaking map.
Alex Brisbane: What if I told you there was candy inside the map?
Yugi: You've got to be kidding me. I'd have to be an idiot to fall for that.
Tea: Candy? That sounds pretty good.
Tristan: Yes. Let's go get the candy!

Episode 5 of The Stockholms uses this as comedy. Well, it's more like a bunch of individual instances of this comedy add up to this without the work suffering for it.
