Last week, Wendy's rolled out their Bulls-Eye BBQ Cheeseburger. Plus they've had a few new chicken nugget dipping sauces for a while. We're going to Wendy's on today's Mark Tastes Random Things! youtu.be/e4kGFzjOItM

I went to college twice, and never bought a branded T-shirt/sweatshirt/hoodie/whatever from either one. One of those things that strangely keeps me up at night.
“But you get an extra hour of sleep!” they say. Nope. My internal clock refuses to be set back an hour, now I’m up an hour early.

A reminder that there are only 53 more shopping days to complain about ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU.
My plan for tomorrow night is to order a pizza, watch Ghostbusters, and wait for trick-or-treaters.

I am frightening myself with how much I'm looking forward to it. I've been scrolling through the pizza apps all day, deciding what to order.
Uh-oh. There's a Pac-Man Google doodle today. Last time they did this, wasn't the headline a 10% drop in productivity at offices?
Reminds me of the dirty joke my grandpa always told me: "Why don't witches wear underwear? To get a better grip on their broomstick." I always too young to get that one.
Something unusual on Mark Tastes Random Things. I've always been fascinated by these freeze-dried ready-to-eat meals, so when I saw they were marked down, I finally had to try one. It's ReadyWise Chili Mac, today on Mark Tastes Random Things! youtu.be/feOd2W0CKT8

The TNG episode Contagion is on. Probably the most realistic episode of Star Trek.
After getting scanned by an alien probe, the Enterprise computer goes haywire. How do they fix it? Unplug it, wait 30 seconds, plug it back in.
Tron Ares. What a rush, man. It was more of a legacy sequel to the original film than Legacy was. The nostalgia bait was strong.
And, as expected, the Nine Inch Nails score kicked ass.
Took a few weeks but we’re finally here! About to watch Tron Ares!
Finally watched Fantastic Four on Blu-Ray, and was in the mood for more Marvel. It’s also Halloween, so I went with Blade II.

Hey, Marvel. Here’s a thought since you have trouble getting the Blade reboot going. Why not give Guillermo del Toro a truckload of money to do it again?
Anybody else ever get the urge to mount a bunch of random toggle switches on the roof of their car’s interior so they can pretend like they’re in a spaceship?
Fatburger is my fancy place, where I go when I want to treat myself. The last time I treated myself was this past summer when they had the Aloha Burger. So here it is, on Mark Tastes Random Things! youtu.be/Wd5FNkFrpd4

Tickets bought for Tron Ares this weekend.

We have the Doritos, we have the cereal, and we have the cookies. Coming soon to Mark Tastes Random Things…Stranger Snacks!
Every year I watch It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, and every year I ask the same question: what kind of jerk gives out rocks?

But seriously, was that like a common Halloween prank back in the 60s?

Cancelled my plans to see Tron because I can't shake this flu bug. Popped out to pick up Fantastic Four on Blu-Ray, but my small town Walmart still doesn't have it. I know this is all first world problems with a pinch of man flu, but I'm just really feeling down.
I don't drink coffee. I never know what to do when someone gives me a coffee. Refusing it just seems rude. The last time I drank one out of politeness, it felt like my heart would explode. So I just pretend to drink it until they leave, then dump it down the sink.
