When people sit on the beach in the sun, they are often doing so to tan their skin, and will ask people "how their tan is coming along." This man humorously flips things around: he's on the beach next to the tanning person, but he's inside of a box working on his "pallor", which isn't something people usually work on, they usually work towards the opposite (tan). This funny inversion makes us wonder: is this man too tan?
