Metro- So it should come as no surprise that a man has been bestowed with the newly prestigious record for ‘the most tattoos of the same cartoon character tattooed on the body’. Lee Weir, 27, of Auckland, New Zealand, has various incarnations of Homer Simpson inked on his left arm. Simpsons nerds will recognise Homer in the land of chocolate, donut Homer, Mr Sparkle, Ganesh Homer, Homer’s exact double Guy Incognito and many other odes to the show’s earlier, better seasons. Like me, Lee probably wouldn’t have to look any of those Homeric guises up, put unlike me, Lee decided to have Homer in his various forms etched permanently into his skin – all for his name to appear in the coveted book. However, there’s another reason Lee is such a Simpsons fiend: his father, who Lee has dubbed the ‘real-life Ned Flanders’, never let him watch the show as a youngster as he deemed it inappropriate. Well he’s certainly got his fix now.

First of all, fire flames Orlando Magic jersey/Amish beard combo there.  Life is about playing to your strengths and this guy gets that.  Second, take that Dad!  You won’t let your son watch The Simpsons growing up as a kid?  Well fuck you.  He’ll cover his arms in 41 Homer Simpson tattoos and break the Guinness world record in the process.  Remember when you wouldn’t let me watch that show I wanted to watch because you thought it was inappropriate?  Who’s retarded now? He has a world record and you don’t.  The parenting style of this Dad speaks to a larger point though.  If this proves anything it’s that you should let your kids do whatever they want.  Don’t oppress them because that’ll make them want to do it more when they get older.  Think of the kids you went to high school with who didn’t drink because their parents would kill them if they did.  They were the kids who would get blacked out and die in college because they had no experience on how to handle their booze.  Let your kids do whatever they want early on so they learn from their mistakes/get it out of their system.  Let your kids do heroin, let your kids sleep with hookers, let your kids drink an entire bottle of Smirnoff at the age of 16.  They’ll learn.  Trust me.  It’s the right thing to do.  Let your kids watch The Simpsons because otherwise they’re going to be rebellious and get 41 Homer Simpsons tattoos and wear basketball jerseys as a grown up.  And this concludes Parenting With Smut Blogger Trent.

This story and the entire last part of that paragraph of the blog is why I never want kids/should never be allowed to have kids.
