Hippie Trap

An interesting or unusual object/installation at a burn (or similar gathering) designed to distract, engage, and often inspire wonder in participants for a short/medium amount of time. (Especially relevant when the hippie trap distracts the participant from whatever they were doing and becomes the object of their full attention) Examples include, but are not limited to: interactive play-forms, interesting lights, unusual textures, uniquely decorated spaces, large flow toys, etc.

spike trap

A spike trap is a trap that can do extensive damage when triggered. They are often found in video games and in some adventuring movies.

To be "spike trapped" is to be caught in a situation that is both painful and painfully avoidable. Players of Dungeons and Dragons frequently must "check for traps" to avoid falling into a variety of traps, including spike traps.

The character Kevin McCallister in Home Alone is someone with extensive knowledge of triggered traps, including spike traps.

In adventuring games, spike traps can make dungeon delving difficult. In multiplayer games, such as PUBG, spike traps can be set to inflict harm on your enemy while protecting a particular area.

Spike traps should not be confused with other traps that are more annoying than they are harmful. For instance, in Animal Crossing New Horizons, you can use a Pitfall Seed to lay a trap that is similar in concept to a spike trap, though it is more of an inconvenience than a damage dealing trap.
"Dude, watch out for that spike trap!"

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.
