low-carb

A diet fad which some claim is safe and healthy, and others claim is a road to heart disease and kidney failure. It touts the removal of excess carbohydrates(carbs) from the diet, which are then replaced by protein, the idea being that the body's blood sugar goes down, insulin goes down, and the body goes into ketosis and begins to burn fat. Some say this is safe, others say it's highly dangerous, most people agree it is a diet best kept to the short term only, as it is not balanced, and it's also very expensive because of all the meat involved. Also known as the "Atkins diet." A less severe version of this model is the "South Beach" diet which allows carbs, but strives to eliminate "simple" carbs like white sugar and flour, in favor of "complex carbs" like whole grains which have high nutritional value and do not create the spikes in blood sugar that provoke insulin overproduction(something Dr. Atkins claimed to be the cause of weight gain.)
Also a big money fad as companies scramble to create "low carb" versions of popular products such as bread and pasta.

Low-carb bread? Now I've seen everything. The whole point of eating bread is to get carbs.

Carbon Cliff

It is a small town with a volunteer fire department, that has almost anybody on it. You blink and you miss the town... unless you are getting gas or guns.

Carbon Cliff's fire department thinks it's the best.

A town in North Eastern Pennsylvania filled with abandoned buildings, messed up roads, and a fair amount of toothless people.

blow some carbon off the valves

When one finally has sex after an extended period of abstinence. Sexual intercourse is compared to starting an engine that has been sitting for a while and has accumulated excessive carbon deposits in its inner workings.

Dude, the last time I got laid was during the Cretaceous Period, I've gotta blow some carbon off the valves .
