I used to get sunburned walking from one building to another in college, and I don't tan - I just turn red.

Bless that English/Irish heritage.

When I get UV rays I feel more energetic, healthier, and much happier. A tan is just frosting on the cake, although it is true that tan fat is much more aesthetically pleasing than white fat.

That goes for all you non-redheads.

Sincerely,
A pasty redhead who's exposure to the sun merely turns him shades that can only be described as similar to undercooked bacon.

i may not be a redhead, but after reading in volunteer for an hour and a half last week, i had (and absolutely continue to have) a sunburn that blistered. gross.
