Lonelistic Physics: Why there are no plot holes.

After discussing the issue of plot holes with my Colleague , Dr. Skunk Waffle, we have come to the conclusion that there are no plot holes in the series, below is an explanation of the physics behind this assertion.
In order for a story to collapse into a plot hole, it must have a crap mass over the Elendi-Waffle Limit (10^18 craps per second of footage). More importantly, however, it must have a plot. While the Lonelygirl15 story is far above the Elendi-Waffle Limit (it has been measured to be about 10^500 c/sF), it doesn't satify the second requirement; there is no plot.
Another telling sign is that the story has not yet reached the event horizon, a key indicator of the existence of a plot hole. This can be easily explained: there has not yet been an event horizon, because there are no events happening. While we were nearing this point earlier in the series, the plot swiftly disappeared and events stopped happing and thus the almost-inevitable collapse into a plot hole has not yet happened.

hahahahaha this is brilliant.
mad props to you ghost and skunky

Craps per second of footage? LMAO.
Dark matter?

Perhaps if there is enough dark matter in the Breeniverse the non existent plot could actually fold back on itself like a non existent mobius strip.

Yes, c/sF.

Yes, MM, that is possible. If this were to happen, then the entire Lonelygirl15 community would fold into itself and cease to exist. Ironically enough, the destruction of said community would have been the outcome had the story arc collapsed into a plot hole.

ETA: Though I do want to say I loved "Rockin' The Boat." And obviously the series as a whole isn't crap or none of us would care. But this is fucking funny nonetheless.

But craps per second of footage sounds like LG is taking a poo. Now, crap per second of footage I think is much more appropriate as it is indeed crap.
Wait, nevermind. They both work.

Well, the reason for the name is that we assumed that the viewers felt that they were indeed being crapped on, and therefore, we measure c/sF by finding how many times per second a viewer feels like they have been crapped on.

Or like a plot black hole. The plot reached its evolutionary endpoint and collapsed on itself to the point of infinite density (crap) and zero volume (entertainment value).

wtf
craps per second of footage = craps per second of footage

Dr. Aja has a very good point. However, it has already reached both of those points (IE: it has reached infinite density AND has zero volume) yet it has not yet collapsed into a plot hole. We can only speculate as to why.

Hahahahaha! Awesome.
Craps per second of footage....*basks in love for those words*

After a short phone conversation with Dr. Aja, we have come to the conclusion that the Lonelygirl15 story arc has, somehow, collapsed into a Neutron Plot. This means that the mass of the plot was not great enough to cause it to collapse into a plot hole, but the reactions and events within the plot were not sufficient for the plot to sustain itself at its massive size. When the plot collapsed, it was able to sustain itself at a much higher crap density and smaller content mass due to the fact that the persona of the actors is so great. This is known as the Jonas Exclusion Principle.
Now, one question still remains: we know that the c/sF of the story arc was well above the Elendi-Waffle Limit, and yet the plot collapsed as it were well below said limit. At this time, I can not answer this question, but I do plan to continue to investigate the matter.
