What the famous red carpet actually is -- a rug rather than a carpet.
A carpet, by definition, is a permanent cloth floor covering; while a rug is a temporary floor covering which can be removed & replaced whenever desired.
So when they're "rolling out the red carpet" for the Oscars, they're actually rolling out the red rug because it is rolled back up & removed when the awards ceremony has finished.

Jason is such a Class A-1 prick for bringing a ghetto blaster to church and blasting Slayer music out of it!!! :-O

When a TV program (such as the news or other current events program) forces heavy censorship, they urge the reporters, narrators, and other crew to say something like piddled-off instead of pissed-off.
{Narrator}:
"In this video, you'll see what happens when one piddled-off idiot takes things way too far."

Very angry at somebody or something; it means the same (and is pronounced the same) as "pissed off".
