but I wanted to say thanks for picking my answer as the best answer for you other question :D

a boob or booby is a foolish or stupid person so they step up traps to catch these people that are stupid enough to fall for them.

because the word boob is also used to mean someone who is stupid ( which is a shame because mine are rated on the genius level...LOL) so they called it a booby trap becuase it was supose to catch the person off guard and make them look like a boob. which is allso why they used to call T.V. the boob tube, becuase it makes people stupid ( or whatever...haha) although now it could be called that because it's full of the boobs...lol.

there is also a bird called the blue footed booby. :P google image it, it's cute.

maybe they blow you up lolz. thanks

Not booby as in mammary glands, you boob, but booby as in idiot or stupid.

The word "boob" traces from the Spanish bobo meaning stupid, which in turn comes from the Latin balbus meaning stammering. The ancient Romans considered stammering to be a sign of stupidity. This type of word is called "echoic," kind of onomatopeic, reflecting the repetitive stammer. "Bal-bal-bal-bus" says Clau-clau-claudius.

The OED notes that the word booby to mean dunce appears as early as 1599.

There is a species of bird called the booby, from its apparent stupidity. As early as the 1630s, the celebrated author and traveler Sir Thomas Herbert described this tropical bird that perched on ship railings, and was so stupid, unsuspicious, or dense that it could be easily caught by sailors. Sir Thomas says the bird is "fitly called a Booby."

It's cos you're a tIt if you get caught by one!LOL
