How many different arrangements in the word scarlet can be made?

Original answer: scar car let et. Improved Answer: First of all, I'm not sure I completely understand the question as it is written. Do you simply want to know what anagrams or portions thereof can be made from the word "scarlet?" If so, here is just a SMALL sampling of what you can do with that word: scat cat clarets' (red wine) Cartel carl or carle (a miser - someone extremely thrifty) lac (organic matter from an insect used for making shellac) erst rest rest talc re (2nd tone of a diatonic scale) fa (4th tone of a diatonic scale) res (matter) ca (to call, to urge forward) car let lets lest arc scar al (an Indian fruit - mulberry) el (elevated railway) crest salt rec (slang for recreation, of course) last slat trace race real lace tar rat However, if your question was how many words can be made from "scarlet" with out changing the order of letter or skipping any (as the first answer would suggest) then there are still a couple more that I can see: ca: to call or urge forward & carle: a miser or someone extrememly thrifty. I hope this helps Dan

What is the origin of the Aussie slang 'cactus'?

Prickly Pear Cactus (native South American), was brought to Australia in 1788 on the First Fleet. It became a pest, quickly overrunning many thousand acres of farmland.

Hence, CACTUS, in Australian slang, means: beaten, finished, ruined, kaput etc. e.g. Jim threw just two punches, and Jack was cactus.

In Tenacious D The Pick Of Destiny the devil sings- I'll make em squeal like a scarlet pimpernel This meaning what?

Wow, I know this question is 10 years old, but why did any of you try to answer this when you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about? To set the record straight and for future reference, I will explain to the best of my knowledge and interpretation while attempting not to plagiarize. To start, a scarlet pimpernel is a flower of the primrose family, but that alone doesn't lend much of an answer to the lyric, which happens to capitalize both the words "scarlet" and "pimpernel" indicating they are proper nouns together. The only instance I could find of them as proper nouns was from old literature. The Scarlet Pimpernel is the title of the first novel and moniker of the protagonist in a series of historical fiction by Baroness Orczy, published in 1905. The popularity of Orczy's novel prompted English speakers to start using "scarlet pimpernel" for any daring hero who smuggled those in danger to a safe haven in another country. Today it is also sometimes used more broadly for a person who is daring, mysterious, or evasive. I believe the lyric means something along the lines of Kyle being a daring hero for taking on the devil, but the devil is saying he will make him squeal for it, which adds to the fun when Kyle will likely be evading him as much as possible in between the sessions where he will fill him with his hot demon gel. Thus, as the lyric goes, "I'll make him squeal like my Scarlet Pimpernel," he means he will make Kyle, his little daring hero, squeal. It definitely has much more meaning than just rhyming and not making any sense. It also certainly isn't a censorship thing considering it is an R rated movie and "fill him with my hot demon gel" alone is already much more "graphic" than the misinterpreted Spanish lyric of "virgin girl."
