Well, his barbecues are awful. Serving that British food instead of some quality American barbecue.

The meat would be under cooked and the beers will be hot and the whole BBQ will be cooked and eaten wearing rain coats and rubber boots while we all stand around and play darts.

Well put Xman. I would have said well done, but I don't feel like getting sick off of undercooked chicken.

Frankly i hate KODI and i think the person who came up with it needs to be shot. I think we should stick with XBMC as it actually IS Xbox Media Center and i love the name. It means something to me as a computer person.

I was always bitter over the fact we had to change our name to differentiate because someone else decided they wanted to use it even though we were far more about what the actual letters stood for and are to this day. God knows why KODI 14 got the OK from those in charge of such decisions. I really wish it was put out to all the users because I have faith the name would have been something to be proud of rather than something to be embarrassed about.

This won't probably end any time soon, so "Team Kodi" has come up a wiki page for it.

Cool, a whole Wiki page dedicated to how stupid the name they choose is. I'm a bit partial to YOGI 14 myself. At least it is deliberate humor.

Xbox Media Centre <sic> For Xbox, rocks. Even if it is tautological.
