Awesome, you should send that idea in after you flesh out the details.
yeah somewhere between now and whenever I finish Dreamscar, Black Sky, Candleflame, After Nightfall, Fall of Night and Horizons Once Lost.
Still, could be a good idea. Might be another being from the same race as The Wire too.

Stupid ten-year-old... Why would she do that? I feel bad that this happened to her, but she should have known better. Even worse, the tanning beds should be monitored at all times to avoid incidents like this.

Natural selection, if your that stupid, and that uncaring about rules then don't reproduce. The salon shouldn't be shut down but somone should be at a front desk or somthing.

People should not be granted leniency, rewarded, or compensated in any way because of their own innate stupidity.

You want to look bright fucking orange for some reason, go ahead and burn yourself. But don't cry when it has a negative impact on your health, because there is more than enough preventative information floating around.

It beats being a pasty white. I like to get a decent tan in the summer, if only because once I tan, I don't burn anymore for the rest of the season (Not looking like a World of Warcraft player is just a plus). I'm not like those obsessed people who go to the tanners every weekend. You know the ones; the ones that are supposed to be naturally white, but are darker than Barack Obama. I especially hate the ones who get tanned in the middle of the Winter. It's just so odd-looking.

Disclaimer: I have nothing against WoW players, just that joke was too easy :)
Sorry to tell you this, but even that is running the risk of skin cancer. causains simply aren't adapted to strong sun - Africans and Arabs have melanin to protect the live layers of skin, but we of the whites lack any. When your skin turns tanned? Thats burned to a crisp skin.
Actually, a sun tan is increased levels of melanin produced by skin cells of us whiteys to defend against exposure to the sun. Hence the reason really tan skin is less likely to burn. The human body is more adaptive than we give it credit for. Even if we aren't born with skin cells with high levels of melanin, our skin produces it if it is in frequent danger of UV rays.

And really, I'm not too concerned about skin cancer. Well, I am, but not to the point of purposely avoiding the sun.

Time to slink back barefoot and pregnant into the pie factory! With my handclaps and my starry eyed ideals about free love and self expression and this really awesome brown acid I bought off this hep cat called Compost.
If you're pregnant, we're going to need to find a stairwell.
Jesus, but I hate kids.

Also, stop hoping.
Hope is now outlawed.
Despite my ever raging ridiculous urge to breed, the lack of dudes in a lesbian's life, and the lack of knowing men without serious personality defects, no matter how much I love them as friends, renders me unpregnant.

Hope is now outlawed? That's it, I'm going to crawl up into my sock draw and sleep for weeks.

Why did she think she needed a tan anyway?

Why did she not have the sense to use some sort of alarm?

Why did she think she needed a tan anyway?

If she did use an alarm, how did she possibly think being in that long could result in anything good? Why didn't she start small and build up?

Probably because she's a fucking retard. Why is she a retard? Our society's value for intellect has dropped below survivable levels. So many people will not use something, even if it's the best at what it does, if it does not look good.

A girl in my class yesterday had some chapstick. It was partially melted in its container. She threw it away. I say, "You could have just kept it outside your pocket for a bit and it would be fine." She says, "You're disgusting. It melted. It's bad." I ask, "It melted in its container; if it resettles in its container, what has actually changed about it?" So she answers, "It melted! It's gross!" I promptly killed myself, because I realized that humanity was failing on a fundamental level. I left.

Tanning salons are a stupid idea to begin with. They only stem from the vanity that has been established as being "part of being a woman."

It's fucking ridiculous.
This.

Really, these kind of things are stupid. I know I wouldn't go out with a woman that vain. And if she was that convinced of gender roles, I would firmly lecture her. Smart, geeky girls FTW!

Caveat emptor.

That's "let the buyer beware" for you kids. It's been the rule of thumb for ages - know exactly what you're buying before you buy it.

Unfortunately, nowadays it seems to be thrown in the back seat along with natural selection. Putting a little effort into life is quickly becoming Amish-level backwards.

Why is it called a tanning "studio"? Do they do movies there or something?
I think tanning beds are stupid. Just use the sun. It's free.
Oh, and yes. They should be monitored.

A new alien for the new Doctor to face off with. And besides The Idiot's Lantern was a TERRIBLE episode.

Basically, ban unmanned machines outright, full stop. Frankly, they should ban all these cancer-makers outright, because the dim fuckwits will and do use them a ridiculous amount, and ended up a hide of leather.

To be honest, what the hell is wrong with people that they think fried is a good tone to look at? At least fake tan doesn't kill you slowly.

Anyways.... I doubt they will ban the tanning beds outright (sadly), but these unmanned machines are just ASKING for trouble to occur. If anything, the operator of the tanning place should be up in court for willfully disregarding the public safety. But anyways... bah.
This is the kind of mindset I'll never understand.

Why? Why help people who are too stupid to help themselves? LET'EM. Let them burn themselves. Let them toast till they're a curly crisp. If you live anywhere near those machines you live in a place civilized enough that you've been taught the dangers that come with it. If people still choose to do it, why must we fight to keep them from doing it? They're only hurting themselves, and they're doing so willingly... Don't we HONESTLY have better things to waste our time in? Like, I dunno, the millions starving to death not by choice but because they don't have an option...?
a) A 10 year old doesn't know any better.
b) Any younger children could easily walk in too.
c) Bringing into a discussion "FUCK YOU, AFRICANS ARE STARVING" is not a valid line of argument unless you want to avoid discussing EVERYTHING else. And even if you do, we don't.

A 10 year old has no business being in a tanning salon, nevermind actually being on a tanning bed.

If you ask me its the girls fault.

This is exactly why they stick big, fat warnings on the side of the door about sun-burn and to stay away if you're 10 and have no common sense.

If you want to tan, i have nothing against that, it's your own body, but something that for all intensive purposes BURNS YOUR SKIN, it should at least be supervised by an attendant, it doesnt matter if theres only one per 10 beds or even 20, there should be somoeone there, as kids are bloody stupid and haven't made the sunburn mistake yet.

No they shouldn't be banned. I don't see how keeping the idiots safe would benefit mankind in any way. Leave natural selection alone, okay? It's there for a reason.
