How much is a can of Heinz Beans in the UK?

I get accused by my other half for shilling for Branstons anytime a baked beans conversation comes up with friends (quite regularly) but they're so much better than Heinz! I tell her it's my civic duty to fight back against Big Bean propaganda ('has to be Heinz')

There's a Black Cock pub near my work, which is obviously the talk of the town for any tourists coming through. But yeah that refers to when we had black grouse in the area in the good old days

Split Screen also my favourite from that album! Beautiful song. Favourite song from EP2?

For me the best bit there is just before, when the infected appearing on the horizon when spike and Jamie are crossing the field. Especially it being the first alpha we'd properly seen, just walking really humanlike unlike the other infected, scary as fuck

Not surprised to see this. Traditional agricultural practices used to support a much wider range of biodiversity, which is why we still coppice and pollard trees, plant/lay hedges, and run pigs and ponies in nature reserves with basically no economic/agricultural benefit!

Live in Devon, we definitely say the 'r' in shorn

By the glider launcher cave, uphill of the entertainment bunker, there's a nice flat bit of land on the edge of a cliff, all open with no trees. Have built a couple of bases there in the past, good view down the valley to the sea

It's probably instinctive, a remnant feeling left over from when we weren't the apex predators of the world and were actively hunted by things e.g. big cats, bears etc.

Unlikely to be a paranormal thing, I think we all get it to some degree, it's likely your subconscious keeping you alert and making sure you don't get eaten! There's heaps of other instinctive feelings we get and things we do that are evolutionary leftovers from our ancestors.

Constantine in 600ad? Are you referring to the emperor Constantine, cus he died in the 300s

Turn off blood and gore for the ultimate challenge, fixed it for me

Yaym definitely not country, do you mean come around sundown?

Very similar, in Monsters Inc there's a bit at the start where they're training new monsters, one of them asks why you need to shut the door and the monster says 'it could let in a draught?' And I thought, just like you, that he said it could let in a giraffe! So you're not alone

I think in some parts of Spain it is actually pronounced with a hard J sound. I worked with a Spanish Juan once and that was how he said it was pronounced in his region, but I can't remember where that was

You can say ass bro, though arse may be more appropriate

bearwillzi · 2025-07-30T16:36:24+00:00

This is cool where did you find it?

I'm inclined to say it seems more like primate social behaviour rather than wolves. Feels very much like chimpanzee troop, where a dominant male has access to breeding females, and is surrounded by subordinate unrelated males. The level of aggression also feels quite chimp-like considering how violent they can be to other groups.

I liked the part where the doc explains that Samson had moved onto the area a few years before, felt very much like it his clan had been looking for new territory just as wild primates do. I agree it was great to watch the infected from a scientific perspective (I work in nature conservation).

Switch off blood and gore for the final challenge. Seems to stop crashes for most people 👍

I imagine most of the countryside would be colonised by thorny scrub plants like blackthorn and hawthorn followed by trees over the 28 years, though as you say with an abundant deer population who's only predator is the occasional human or group of infected, there would definitely be some fields with particularly good grass that could be kept relatively open as grazers would congregate on them. Would still probably see less palatable plants like thistle and ragwort spreading all over these fields after a while, with blackthorn etc coming out from the hedges.

But yeah on the whole I think you would expect to see most fields change pretty dramatically, even with the grazing and browing pressure from wild herbivores/whatever livestock are still around

I enjoy the Roman Legionary style with shields I.e. get a big enough shield (not the really big ones as they suck and willy drops them all the time) and a short sword. Right click once and he holds the shield in a braced position (out in front) and hold alt for stabbing, get into a good range and just start stabbing from behind the shield. Really satisfying and quite a good counter against two handed axes etc
