Has anyone ever noticed how 'Slartibartfast' is an
anagram of 'Artiblastfarts'?
Just wonderin'.
MOSSY.
As I recall the name was written to sound obscene while still passing free from censorship.For 'Slartibartfast' I hear a variation of 'Hearty Fart Blast'

IIRC, the original version was fartyfuckballs and needless to say it
needed some cleaning up.

Back to the OP's thing about anagrams, Presbyterians is an anagram of Britney Spears.

The french have a sort of clever linguistic sport that attempts to conceal rude or sexual jokes in unconspicious phrases in which pairs of consonants are swapped, for other adepts to decrypt and piss their pants. It is called a “contrepèterie”. This is particularly entertaining in stiff official reunions.
Example :
A gynaecologist when making next appointment : je vous laisse le choix dans la date -> ... le doigt dans la chatte. where “ch” swaps with “d”
I let you choose the date (goes:) I let the finger in the fanny. Drops flat in English of course, lost in translation.

See the nun joke in which “soul is full of hope -> hole full of soap” is of the same make though not concealed.

How about slotty bath fart, which would be closer to a contrepeterie than an anagram, as they aren’t necessarily anagrams.
