If someone says in Australian slang; " you are cactus mate...." the reference is that you are in a load of trouble, or that your immediate future looks grim.

One could say that this is a very lateral thought but the slang concept is based on the fact that Cactus live in the desert, get no water and have a pretty tough existence.
