“Well, sir. Your complaint is important to us..” the voice drones
“No! It’s not important to anyone not living here!” Martin spits venom”Listen, you idiot! I hear loud noises that go wa-WA-wa-WA-wa-WA then a popping sound. Then more rapid noises for ten seconds. Multicolored ghosts run across my windows! ”

A real life Pacman game, I’d love that! I could go without sleep for a couple of days, it would be worth it 🙂

I’m sure there’s someone who came up with this idea. A 120 foot tall screen would be cool until the ghosts got you.
