    Etwas (eine lästige Arbeit) oder auch jemanden an der Backe haben - lästigen Besuch, z.B.
    Gibt es da nicht einen ebenso saloppen Ausdruck im Englischen?

    Are you sure about "by"? I would have thought that "trapped by" means that someone meant to trap you. "trapped with" indicates that you are stuck in a trap and this really annoying person is there also.

    "trapped with" would most likely indicate that I am trapped by someone or something along with someone else so that the two of us are now stuck.

    Meine Stimme geht an lumbered oder stuck

    (die anderen sind mir zu wenig umgangssprachlich, und "trapped" passt nicht, finde ich (weder by noch with))
