Tannin

A straight up bad ass. Tannin won't think twice about kicking your ass if you break one of his codes of conduct, and if you hurt a woman expect to be bleeding. Often referred to as an alcoholic by family members and sometimes by himself. Expect many random outbursts and hilarious quotes when in a Tannin's presence. When drunk Tannin may do acts of great humor such as swimming then heating his cold body with tiki torches. Many fear Tannin and he knows it. Often well dressed. Many know Tannins to be rich and powerful people.

Guy: "Damn, that guy is a party animal, he must be a Tannin."
Girl: "I know, he went swimming and look at him now!"
Guy: "Are Those Fucking Tiki Torches!?!"

janus riis tannis

A brilliant historian and archaeologist who specialized in Mesoamerican culture and history. He died recently on an archaeological dig in Mexico. Foul play was ruled out in an official report, but there are suspicions that he may have been murdered.

Why do I keep seeing signs saying "Janus Riis Tannis is not who he seems to be"?

tanning bed

A bed/booth you lay/stand in. It has ultraviolet bulbs that emit UV very much similar to the sun. It will give you a tan very much like the sun does. There is a possibility skin cancer can be acquired from using one of these devices.

Damn she's tan, she must be using the tanning bed again

Power-tanning

In efforts to get a tan by direct sun-exposure, one knowingly avoids high SPF values in order to get a darker skin-color ASAP. This usually means risking a sunburn. However, burnt skin will gradually turn tan.

Girl 1: Hey, you should apply some sunscreen. You're gonna get a sunburn.

Girl 2: That's OK, I'm power-tanning.
