hella

San Francisco Bay Area Slang. First became widely used during the early 1980's.

Became more mainstream after the band No Doubt's song entitled, "Hella Good" was released.

The term is shortened from "hell of" and most likely derived from "a hell of a lot of"

hella

A word that many undereducated people argue over the originations of. A vast majority of people don't realize it's a hella waste of time, and that no one gives a shit. Some would even argue that 'hella' spawned from hell itself as a mind-numbing reminder of Satan's evergrowing control of human souls and the stupidity of mankind.
