A guy walks into a tattoo parlor

He gets a nice tattoo of his daughters name. The guy comes back the next week and gets just a dash on his arm. He keeps coming back each week getting another dash.

Eventually the tattoo artist asks him what he's doing. The guy replies "Keeping count."

"Of what?" the tattoo artist asks.

"How many tattoos I've got."
