bro fam
A family of bros. You know the type, because it seems every neighborhood has one of these families. Usually it starts with the huge 20-foot trailer they park in front of YOUR house, forcing you to have to park in front of your neighbors house, making them mad as well.
Another characteristic is the perpetually unkempt front lawn, long and full of weeds because they only mow it once every 1000 years, or they just let it turn brown and die, turning it into the neighborhood eyesore. Not to mention all the soda bottles, cans, candy wrappers, toys, and all manner of junk left on the lawn by the bro kids.
Speaking of the kids, these uncivil bros-in-training always seem to be on an unending mission of riding their motobikes and quads at high speeds through the neighborhood streets with little regard, making it dangerous to impossible for other kids to simply play out in the street without getting hit by these little monsters. Not to mention the noise they make speeding their way through the street, usually while you are taking a nap or trying to enjoy dinner.
Then we got the bro fam pets, dogs, often viscious, that bark incessantly ALL NIGHT LONG, driving you to near-insanity from lack of sleep. But nobody ever complains or contacts authorities on the bro fam because of fear of retaliation.
Basically the neighborhood bro fam makes life on your street hell!

I had to park on the other side of the street because the bro fam parked their 20-foot trailer in front of our house again.

Lakers
In South-Central Los Angeles, wearing Los Angeles Lakers clothing and gear is generally considered gang-neutral. While wearing Lakers clothing won't necessarily guarantee your safety, it does make a statement to gang members that you're not looking for trouble.
Wearing Lakers gear in South-Central will buy you a little safety, but it is not guaranteed.
Red (Bloods) + Blue (Crips) = Purple (Lakers color)

MLK party
A racially insensitive party thrown by white college students "celebrating" Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Activities involve parodying every African-American stereotype possible. Costumes worn by partygoers include blackface, gang apparel, guns, carrying malt liquor, do-rags, fried chicken, gold teeth/grills, females stuffing the rear of their pants, even dressing as Aunt Jemima among others. Brought to national attention in early 2007 when pictures of these parties taken place at Tarleton State University, University of Connecticut School of Law, and Clemson University were discovered on the Facebook website and were later reported by The Smoking Gun website.
Frat Boy: "Hey bro! Wanna come to my MLK party? It's gonna be da bomb shizzle fo rizzle ma nizzle!!!"
Student: "Apparantly, your only source of exposure to black people is what you see on MTV."

musclehead
An automotive enthusiast who believes in the philosophy that the bigger a car's engine, the better it is. Used in a perjorative fashion.
If you take 2 cars, one with a V-6 and one with a V-8, the stereotypical musclehead will always believe the car with the V-8 is better, even though the car with the V-6 may actually be faster for other reasons (lighter weight, higher displacement-to-horsepower ratio, turbos, superchargers, etc.), have better handling and response, etc.

magic johnson
A basketball legend who revolutionized the game, but who's career was cut short when he contracted HIV. For a basketball player's game to be compared to Magic Johnson is a high honor.
Oh, snap! Did you see homeboy pull off that no-look behind-the-back pass? That kid's the next Magic Johnson!
