    What do 'Degrassi Jr High' and 'House Party' have in common?

    The late 1980s to early 1990s Canadian teen soap opera featuring storylines dealing with social issues had two words spoken by its characters that were not real words used as insults. They were written as an 'in' word to be spoken amongst the people in its show. The words were 'narbo'.... and 'broomhead'

    So I'm watching House Party again the other night, first time in years and years and the dudes from Full Force are chasing Kid. He goes through the after-hours funeral home party going on, comes out the back door and hears, "here goes that broomhead albino! Get that mother****er now! Get him now! Get him !"

    Good stuff...

    So in House Party, what's the most awesome element in that movie? A 21-year old Tisha Campbell? The oh-so-tame rap battle at the party? Or Full Force's hair...

    Well "Brromhead" is just an understandable insulting description of Kid's haircut which they were making fun of through whole movie (Play calls him Eraser-Head in the battle between them). It's just a coincidence. Now if someone else had been called broomhead, maybe.

      Actually, upon further review - check out Martin Lawrence as Bilal in House Party....tell me he's not the black Joey Jeremiah
