050222 540x1681 The life and times of Ms. Pac Man

This actually isn’t a joke, but did you know that Pac Man was created in a brainstorming session about how to get women into video games? The inventor of the game asked, “What do women like?” The answer was shopping and eating. Since he couldn’t figure out a way to work in shopping, the game became about eating. Hence the gobbling and the fruits. Fortunately, he ignored the other major things women are good for, otherwise Ms. Pac Man would run around after Pac Man whining about how he didn’t clean the garage while shedding her uterine lining and making less money. Which, while educational, is gross and doesn’t seem like a whole lot of fun. And that’s why kids don’t ever get how the world really works.

What'd you think of this?
