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)
