hobo trap

A device or tactic used by hobos to solicit or obtain handouts from unwitting passers-by. These traps are often designed to take advantage of someone who is in a vulnerable situation, locals or other hobos, which is a direct violation of rule 3 of the hobo ethical code. Traps may occasionally be marked with hobo signs designed to covertly communicate trap effectiveness with other hobos.

I barely escaped that hobo trap back there with my wallet.

Why is there an unopened champagne bottle by that bush? That's a hobo trap.

nap trap

Any object or place that leads you to take a "surprise" nap.

Oftentimes, one wakes up completely bewildered or shocked that they fell asleep in a nap trap, even if they have fallen into the nap trap before.

Example 1:

3PM on Sunday
Me: Hmm. I guess I'll just sit here on the sofa and watch TV for half an hour.

4:20PM that same day
Me: *Opens eyes* Crap, did I just fall asleep?
Roomie: *Walks by* Dude, you know that couch is a nap trap.

Example 2:

No wonder I am failing calculus, that warm classroom is a total nap trap.

Canary Trap

a method for exposing an information leak by giving different versions of a sensitive document to each of several suspects and seeing which version gets leaked.

The government needed to find their employee leaking information to the media so they setup a canary trap by giving each suspected employee a slightly different story.
