Aw well, it's all good.

hahah yeah, 'its a trap' is slang internet terms for a transexual/transvestite.

Quote
1. It's a Trap

Originally stated by Admiral Ackbar in Starwars, it has now become a Meme on the Internet.

When I found out the hot chick was really a man, I screamed "It's a Trap"
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=it%27s+a+trap
http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/Trap (NSFW)

So, if you're gonna go with the AKBar48, I suggest dropping off the tag line, because.. well, yeah.

Post by: frblckstr1 on January 27, 2008, 07:29:01 AM: ^ The fact that poeple are double using the phrase doesn't mean we can't use it here.
(like the 'ho ho ho' discussion around christmas)
BTW seen any swimsuit shots of them lately??

Also JPH!P has a tendency to name things differently ;)

Jailbait/Transexuals is not a good double phrase.

JPH!P may have that meaning, but the rest of the internet has the other meaning. The amount of guests/lurkers that would come in, and look at the title and think wtf.
Even still I've been on jphip for just about a year and a half now and I've never heard the 'its a trap' phrase here directed towards U18 girls.

Like I said, I'm fine with naming it AKBar48, but the tag line is insult to the band.

Post by: Sayange on January 27, 2008, 03:29:20 PM: Personally, I voted coz Daigong explanation. I didn't know it was insulting or something on the net. I'm not a Star Wars fan so I didn't know that meaning. :'(

Post by: shadowstar on March 16, 2008, 11:04:08 AM: "AKBar48" wins by a mile!

Okay, sorry for taking forever with this guys, but I'll have the name of this sub-forum changed by an admin because I don't think I can do it myself. Thanks for voting! :)
