Carbon Fauxber

Cheap plastic used to resemble carbon fiber in an attempt to push a product (ie Suzuki motorcycle) upmarket, but in reality alerting the attentive consumer to the fact that said product will in fact, upon first attempted use reveal a fairly high Velveeta content.
"Awsome ride dude, it must be really light, hence fast, with all that Carbon Fiber."

"If only. It's really Carbon Fauxber, made from the cheapest plastic know to humanity, impossible to keep clean or paint, plus it looks crappy and suggests inherently bad design"

carbon tax

What politicians believe is the only viable solution to climate change just so they can charge more tax.
That guest on CNN said carbon tax is the only solution to climate change? Give me a break.

Obsessive Carbon Copy Disorder

The compulsion to CC your boss or colleagues on every damn email you send!

The sufferer usually will usually tell you they do it to keep their boss "in the loop" but mostly it's just to prove they're working.

Commonly known as OCCD.

The Carbon Cycle

The Carbon Cycle is probably better known as The Circle of Life. Since it is a continuous cycle, there is really no beginning of the cycle but we will start with the plants.

First the plants absorb carbon from the air through their leaves.
Then herbivores eat the plants and the plants give a percentage of their energy and their carbon to the herbivore.
Next carnivores eat the herbivores and that passes along energy and carbon as well.
Finally the carnivore dies, decomposes, and the carbon returns to the soil that eventually grows grass and other plants.

The atmosphere receives carbon from various sources but here are a couple:
- Burned fossil fuels.
- When animals exhale. (Including humans.)
- Believe it or not, volcanoes!
- Plant respiration. (When Plants "breathe" in, they also inhale oxygen so they exhale a portion of carbon dioxide.)
Grass absorbs carbon through leaves. Rabbit eats grass. Fox eats rabbit. Fox eventually dies, decomposes, and becomes soil. Soil grows new grass. That is the Carbon Cycle.

Carbon Bone

like a regular hard-on, but way harder..firm to the point of causing extreme pain to the "carbon bone-ee"
Man after my hoe left last night I couldn't get rid of my Carbon Bone for like 3 hours.

carbon unit

The human operator of a machine, a computer, or any device in general that is having "problems" or "errors" or "is malfunctioning" in the eyes of that operator. In this case, the problems, errors, and malfunction is actually a problem with the operator and not the machine, computer, or device.
Customer: What was the problem with my computer?

Tech: There is a problem with the carbon unit. It will eventually resolve itself after extended hours of use. At least that is the hope.
