Mark: Have you seen Shaqumphria?
Bill: Yeah, she gained like 200 lbs since high school and is still wearing those spandex she had in tenth grade, not to mention her fucked up weave, gold teeth, eye piercings, and tattoos on her neck.

A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.
