Narm is a term used on the website TV Tropes for anything that attempts to achieve some kind of dramatic effect but, whether because of poor writing or poor acting, tends to instead be unintentionally humorous rather than dramatic.
The term comes from the show "Six Feet Under." During the climax of its last season, its main character is stricken by a brain embolism. As he suffers from the effects of his sudden seizure, he begins yelling the words "Numb arm," quickly slurring it into a single syllable.

I really love 24, but that scene where Jack yells, 'WHERE'S THE FOOTBALL!?' over and over is just full of narm. I couldn't stop laughing!

Narm is short for Pecknarm.
Pecknarm is slang for Peckham in South London.
The nickname for Peckham is Vietnarm, due to its high crime rate and gang violence.
Pecknarm is made by mixing 'Peckham' and 'Vietnarm' together:
PECKham + vietNARM = PECKNARM .... or 'NARM for short.
Other places ending in 'ham (eg: Tottenham) are *not* Narm. Only Peckham is.

a curious expletive that occasionally precedes one having part of their brain explode. This phenomenon, interestingly, also seems to correlate to one's previously having had sex with Quakers named Maggie.

this word stems from an event occuring in the HBO series six feet under. In the show it stems from the words numb arm, but in slang use today it is used as an adj. meaning morbidly cool/extreme.
