Tan much?

Her overdone picture was shocking.

 

She won't have a long life... The big "C" is just around the corner.

 

why do people seem to think being orange is attractive?

 

She is definitely the darkest--by a long shot--Caucasian I have ever seen. Most absolutely cannot get that dark no matter how much they tan. She has irrevocably destroyed her skin and it is certainly a wrinkled mess now.

 

Well-done.

 

To those that might know more about disorders - does this sound like OCD?

I think of the ending of The Aviator when DiCaprio playing Howard Hughes has an episode of OCD

 

If the entire case is built off what her daughter told her friends, that's pretty flimsy. Added to the fact that the daughter, from the video, is a redhead and (like most redheads I've met) likely burns easily, it's pretty easy to believe that it all happened as the family claims - the daughter was outside the booth, and simply got burned from the sunny, hot day.

Besides, do we really want to take the mother away sooner than her tanning habits will anyways?

 

Maybe they have a thing for Gene Wilder.

 

those actually made me laugh, good job.

tanning is something i'll never understand, i have red hair and burn within 5 mins of being outside. i'm pretty much destined for melanoma.

 

"tanorexia" - perfect description of this disorder.

The Body Odd - What caused the N.J. tanning mom's leathery look?

 

It's a Jersey thing.

 

^ moderators should censor that picture.

It's not you, it's crazy people that do beauty backwards.

 

Notice the wide clearance around her.

 

That woman is tanner than I am.

....and he died early because he did not get ENOUGH sun

Tanned skin was viewed negatively in 1900 - only the working class had tans. Post WWII tans were in as being a sign of the leisure class. People in the 1950s and 1960s worked on their tans. We now know there is no safe tan, it is a sign of premature aging.
