Parents' Basement
From HR Wiki Twice
Jump to navigationJump to search
"I'm gonna have to ask you to leave my parent's basement now."
The location of someone's parents' basement has been mentioned in a few cartoons as well as in public appearances of The Brothers Chaps. The phrase is used by Strong Bad usually as a means to ridicule other people. Sometimes the phrase is used in a singular possessive case ("parent's" with the apostrophe before the s), implying that there is only one parent in possession of the basement.
