To paraphrase Homer Simpson: If you want to remember something, get a tattoo.

Lee Weir probably doesn't need any more reminders of how awesome he is. The 27-year-old New Zealand man has set a Guinness World Record for "most tattoos of the same cartoon character tattooed on the body" with his Homer Simpson sleeve.

According to Guinness World Records:

Lee has 41 tattoos of Homer in total, each representing Bart’s dad in various states, including Homer as a jack-in-the box, the Grim Reaper, in an elephant suit, as the Hulk, and even Homer as a donut.

The UK's Daily Mirror noted that Weir decided to get the tattoos in part because his father, who he described as a "real-life Ned Flanders" (Homer's annoyingly nice neighbor on the long-running animated series), forbade him to watch the show as a kid.

Weir told Guinness that he paid for the tattoos with money he saved abstaining from booze for a year.

Would you get a tattoo of Homer Simpson or any other cartoon character? How about getting so many of them that you get into the guinness world record book?
 
Well his tattoos have meaning to him. It said in the article that its a tribute to his father.
