Just how many Homer Simpson tattoos should a devoted fan have? Lee Weir has covered himself in 41 and this is a world record. When you forbid your kid watch their favorite cartoon, just remember Weir and his parent’s ban.

The 27-year old from Auckland New Zealand says he was not allowed to watch the popular sitcom because his father, whom he calls a real life Ned Flanders, would not let him watch the series. Bart’s dad was depicted as a buffoon, Lee’s father would argue.

“I was never allowed to watch The Simpsons growing up... But I’ve always enjoyed watching the show in later life and it feels incredible to be a record breaker,” said the university student, who is himself a father of one.

The Homer sleeve, as he calls it, took more than 25 hours to finish and was done by a close friend and tattoo artist Ben Jenkins. He managed to pay for the tattoos by abstaining from booze for a year.
