HFFA (Hot From Far Away)

When you see a girl from far away and think that she is hot, but then the closer she comes to you, the uglier she gets. This can be very horrifying for people.
Mark: Yo Alex, look at that hot chick all the way down the road.
Alex: Daaaamn, she's banging and she's coming toward us

Mark: Oh shit, she's not that hot after all.
Alex: Dude, she's not a she....That's a guy...That's Thadius
Mark: I guess she (I mean he) was only HFFA (Hot From Far Away)

Far-Away Fine 

Far-Away Fine: She's fine from afar but far from fine!!!

Far-Away Fine is when a girl or a guy looks fine (hot) from far away but when you get close you realize that he or she is not fine looking.
Two girls walking down the sidewalk see a guy off in the distance walking towards them and one girl says to the other, "Oh look! He's lookin' fine!" but then as the guy approaches they see that he is not fine. Once they pass him and walk on for a bit the same girl looks to her girlfriend and says, "He was far-away fine!" and they both laugh.

that tree is far away 

The expression "that tree is far away" is used in situations to express that the last statement made by that speaker is irrelevant and unimportant information that can be ignored, rather than repeated. It's best used as a reply when a person mumbles something, an accompanying individual cannot understand and asks for them to re-say their last line, only to be told "that tree is far away," indicating that what they originally spoke was not worth repeating.

It's derived from a Mitch Hedberg comedy act:
"I mumble a lot on stage, I'm a mumblerer. But sometimes what I mumble is some insignificant shit. Like I'll be walking down the street with my friend, and I will have said something, but he didn't hear me, so he says "What!?" SO I'll say it again, and again he had not heard me, so he'd say, "What!?" And now by this time I am yelling "That tree is very far away!"
Two people are walking to the subway...
Person A: (mumbles) Smells like popcorn in here
Person B: What?
Person A: Nothing
Person B: ???
Person A: That tree is far away

I Ran (So Far Away)

The BEST (and most iconic) 80's song!
Whenever I think of the 80's, the song I Ran (So Far Away) plays in my head.

Far Away Beauty Syndrome (FABS) 

When a boy or girl looks attractive from far away, either from the back, the front, or the side, but is actually not especially attractive when seen up close.
Brit: OMG, Jen, that guy over by the lifeguard stand looks so hooot!!
Jen: Yeah, he has a really nice bod and flowy blonde hair!
*Girls walk closer to get a better look*
Jen: Oh, nevermind.
Brit: Ewww, he has yellow teeth and oddly shaped bushy eyebrows.
Jen and Brit:....Just another guy with Far Away Beauty Syndrome (FABS). *dramatic, disappointed sigh in unison*
