Well, I'm gonna go start digging now.
I can't stand nothing dull
I got the high gloss luster
I'll massacre your ass as fast

I haven't played Pac-Man in a while. May just go hit that up.

I wonder if there's a free version of Dig Dug out there somewhere...

When I said that I'm gonna start digging when I heard that Pac-Man was thirty years old, I meant my own grave.

We need an old man emoticon.

Yes, many years ago there was a pac-man cartoon starring Pac-Man, Mrs Pac-Man, and they introduced Baby Pac-man later.

The bad guys were Inky, Pinky, Blinky, Clyde (all from Pac-Man), and Sue (from Mrs. Pac-Man)

There're a lot of episodes up on Youtube, a quick search reveals.

Ah, my favorite video game. Apparently, there's only been one confirmed instance of a man playing through all 256 levels.
