History.
Repeat.
Historepeat.
They say that not knowing history will lead to repeating it.
But what about the parts that we WANT to repeat? Shouldn't we try and not know them?
Stop teaching about Gandhi and Martin Luther King and Einstein and Thomas Edison and Darwin!
Once we've forgotten all about them, we'll have new ones!
Maybe a Voltron combining them all: a peaceful time-traveling inspirational inventor!
(With the head of a lion! And arms that are also the heads of lions! But that used to be the heads of monkeys! Go Voltron!)
Evolve.
Voltron.

Golferocious
Golfer.
Ferocious.
Golferocious.
Someone who is vicious on the fairway. (A theoretical concept.)
Like if Tiger Woods were an actual tiger. (In the woods or otherwise.)
He'd still be the best, but most of his wins would come by default.
Wherefore.
Forfeit.

Hungryphon
Hungry.
Gryphon.
Hungryphon.
Mealtime for a creature that is half big cat and half big bird* must be confusing.
The cat part must be thinking "eat that bird head!"
Decapitate.
Appetite.
Decappetite.
Except that the bird head is the part that houses the brain, so the thinking is more like "don't let that cat body get us, escape!"
Torso.
Soar.
Torsoar.
But the head requires that cat body for any escape movement.
Feline.
Lingering.
Felingering.
So, the gryphon is like a hermaphrodite except with parts that repel rather than attract.
Confuse.
Fusion.
Confusion.
* Not half Sesame Street's "Big Bird," but half eagle, a large bird.
Gryphons wouldn't have lasted long if they were flying around with that big yellow friendly head.
And they're not around now.
So maybe that IS what happened.

Parrottweiler
Parrot.
Rottweiler.
Parrottweiler.
An animal that will bite someone exactly the same way you just bit them.
Copycat.
Ate.
Copycate.
So it's a bird-like dog who acts like a cat.
(See also Chimpanzebra.)

Cheshirate
Cheshire.
Irate.

A cat that disappears, leaving behind only an angry facial expression.
Kitten.
Tense.

Felinestein
Feline.
Einstein.
Felinestein.
Cats are smart.
Einstein was smart.
But in different ways.
For example, Einstein wasn't smart enough to get his hair under control like a cat does.
Maybe he should have wet the back of his paws more.
But he was too busy helping to invent the atom bomb.
Oh well.
Cats have their priorities in order.
Relaxation, looking good, AND world peace.
Take that, Einstein.
Meow.
Ouch.
Meowch.
