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.
