fluorescent tan
n.— «More than the millions who only have a fluorescent tan to show for a day’s work; more than those who swelter in airless offices which provide only the smell of a gymnasium and none of the exercise benefits.» —“Coaches on conditioning” by Michael Bezdek Bucks County Courier Times (Levittown, Pennsylvania) May 24, 1977.
