Putting meaning into Pac Man

Pac Man may just seem like a simple game...

But I like to put meaning into things that didn't really have one in the first place.(Look at my Story of Poke'mon's "Villain"Gary Oak)

So at the moment I like to over analyse things and making up stories and theories that fit my own prejudices and views of the world and society in general.

So this is what I think of Pac Man…

Yeah this is happening…

Listen to me Bullshit about Pac Man!!!

Pac Man is your every day guy just like you and me.

And each single pellet represents a measurement of time; Let's say they're days. Now each day Pac Man is avoiding Ghosts all his "Life". So he's living his Life day by day avoiding those Ghosts. Now these Ghosts each represent a fear of Pac Man's life, whether it be insecurity, financial, health, rejection, etc. Just the 4 main fear's in his "Life".

So he's basically trying to get enough pellets of days to level up.

So enough days dedicating to leveling up, so each level could represent a great life breakthrough like surviving an accident, winning an award, graduating, holding your son, etc. But he's going to need a way to conquer his fears if he wants to level up.

Now the POWER Pellets is when Pac Man is INVINICABLE and can devour his Demons. These Power Pellets represent a moment of Clarity and/or Strength in Pac Man's life. He is then able to momentarily conquer and defeat his Fears. One Power Pellet could represent strength like... Alcohol, Drugs, Sex, Battle, A Job, A Steady Girlfriend, Whatever, etc.

And each time he conquers a fear it only comes back later....

But to Pac Man occasionally Life gives you a lemon... or an orange... or a cherry... So it isn't all pain and struggle up to those few ultra awesome power pellet moments in your "Life".

Just make sure when you're in power pellet mode in the game of life Pac Man, you conquer more than just one ghost, be nice to get some breathing space away from those ghosts for a while.

There is a High Score at the end of "Life"

I'm still not sure if any of that made sense but... Here's more Scott Pilgrim bullshit
