Shoo, the book, “Where the Wild Things Are”, by Maurice Sendak, is quite possibly one of the most famous children books in America, and my favorite one as a young kid.

The tattoo is “Max and the Wild Things”
 
Missed this thread.

I have 3 including one on each arm.

I have contemplated getting more, but I haven't gotten a new one in years.
 
I miss the days when only tough guys and navy men had them. Even the guys with lots of tatts say too many people have them and it is not special anymore.

Were you under the impression that people get tattoos to “be special”?

And back on those days the ‘artists’ weren’t as talented and severely limited by the inks and equipment. It’s an entirely different art form these days - not just dodgy anchors, hearts, swastikas and skulls. Hence you see middle class women getting stunning watercolors and delicate floral pieces.

Righteous ink. Any reason other than just the beauty of Haida art? I have a buddy on Haida Gwaii who does ink and carves masks. He's does a lot of Haida-style designs. He did some wicked ones on himself. He's not always sober. I have masks from him.

I think I mentioned it elsewhere, I have a thing for Seattle/PNW-related stuff, having grown up listening to grunge music. And for sea creatures.
I have Jimi Hendrix on one shoulder and an octopus on the other.

I have a monkey on my back.
 
Back when I was a young man, I used to think tattoos were good, naughty fun. I have three: an owl on my left calf, an eagle on my right calf and another eagle on my chest. I got these over 50 years ago. These days, I find most of this modern stuff grotesque and repulsive. Maybe this is just a sign of being old.
