Pac and Ms Man

Under what circumstances would Pacman refuse to consume a Ghost? A Ghost that was hysterical with grief? A partially paralysed Ghost? A Ghost who was fast asleep? You would be surprised at the etiquette of Pacman. There are grey areas, like a merely mildly upset Ghost or a limping Ghost. Our beloved yellow arcade legend thinks twice. Imagine the ensuing conversation with his missus, Ms Pacman. I bet that when he does not bag a Ghost on ethical grounds she glares sternly at him, and tells him that he’s slipping and his Game is weak. Then she says that if it wasn’t for the pills she would be gone. Then to finish him off she tells him that she was just playing him for the fruit. A dog barks somewhere in Connetticut. Barks again, louder this time. “Wake up…Wake Up, Pacman! You were having a bad dream” Our Hero rises abruptly in a cold sweat and tells her that everything is wrong. “You’re getting ‘noid, P-Man. Now Pacman bursts into tears and tells her that he is weeping with frustration. She understands. Only one thing is going to happen here but I will not further defame this yellow Ghost Magnet. Only one thing is going to happen, though. Especially if he mentions his love for critically endangered animals. R
