Good Old 16th Century, And Its Love For Rocket Powered Warrior Cats
The 16th century was seeing warfare get revolutionized. Gunpowder had shown up on the scene and changed warfare from the way humans had been accustomed to fighting forever.

Drug Addict ’90s Cartoons Are Terrifying
Cartoons we so adored in the ’90s are now past their prime. Sure, we may miss them and remember them with nostalgia, but the characters are mostly out of work.

Street Wear Superheroines

The battle of the five kings has come to a grinding halt as a new king now sits on the iron throne. Grumpy Cat has claimed the iron throne at the Game of Thrones exhibit at SXSW. Eat your heart out, mother of dragons.
Clawz Are Crocs With Large Toenails
Crocs have such a negative connotation, let’s make it all better by adding claws for toenails. That way, we have Clawz, which are definitely not crocs because they got big toenails and they are spelled different. So now that this marketing hurdle has been solved with such ingenuity, what do we do next?
