I would say that anything with warning signs on it telling what it does can't be considered a trap, pretty much by definition. Of course, having the Descending Spike Ceiling Room in your house easily accessible and with no emergency stop button on the inside probably violates some industrial safety guidelines.

This is so totaly sig material.

[IronyOwl]

I've got the best idea for a trap that warns people and yet does not give them the prior knowledge to avoid the trap.

Chain up Admiral Ackbar in your living room and have him savage any strangers that break in.

SO sigged. The mental imagery is way too hilarious.

[Vester]

And also, racist?
Against salmon?

That's the beauty, it's a different species. Unless you also believe that every humanoid species in Sci-Fi can trace their lineage back to William Shatner.

That wouldn't make it inhumane to chain it up, though.

Also, Admiral Ackbar is a squid.

No, those Cthulhu wannabes are the squid.

Admiral Ackbar has the consistency and taste of a well-baked salmon.

[Grakelin]

The Cthulhu wannabes are just a different kind of squid. What kind of salmon are bright red and have huge bulbous eyes sticking out of their heads? Have you seen salmon before? You don't eat a lot of sea food, do you? Mon Calamari = a squid.

[Soadreqm]

I thought he was a lobster. Or was that Zoidberg?

[sonerohi]

Zoidberg is lobster, Ackbar is squid.

Okay, it's a bit of a stretch, but Ackbar can't be a squid. He has a mouth that isn't a hellish beak.

He also has arms, so clearly he's not a fish.

Aha-ha-ha-ha.

Another poor, innocent, unsuspecting soul who has not learned of furries.

More seriously, he has a fishy name and is an amalgamation of the qualities that make up fish and squid. That's about as good as it's going to get.

[Sir Pseudonymous]

That was a direct response to "he doesn't have a beak, so clearly he's not a squid".

Don't furries usually have, uh, fur?

Oh god, now I've remembered that weird Orangina ad campaign they had when I went to France involving octopusgirls.

  Homeowner can be sued===> what is Amiral ak-bar exacly. Now guy you've overdone yourselves. And in 6 pages.

Can homeowners be sued for traps===> Admiral Akbar.  Very logical link.

[Grakelin]

I sent many lobsters to their doom when I worked for the grocery store, and Ackbar is not a lobster. They can never detect traps, for one thing, and they have very tiny eyes, for another. And shells. Sharp, hard shells.

Spoiler: ALLAHU ACKBAR! (click to show/hide)

[Soadreqm]

Oh, yeah, there's that. A lobster couldn't detect a trap if there were four other lobsters already in it trying to get out. I've eaten lobsters I lifted out of the lake myself, and they are utterly helpless before our superior human technology. And our superior human fingers. They can't even bend their rigid exoskeletons enough to pinch you if you grab them by the back.
