What would the world be like if cats suddenly took charge?
The surreal question became a hot topic on Twitter over the weekend, as the #IfCatsWereInCharge hashtag trended worldwide thanks to Portmanteau Jones' regular hashtag game "Hashtag Jones."
According to tweeters, the world would become a more peaceful place filled with plenty of free back rubs. But on the flip side, some said our new feline overlords would ban dogs, succumb to a global catnip epidemic and then probably just spend their time watching people videos online.
