Get the Hella Gay mug.Related Words
The dumbest word ever created. A derivation of "hell of a" combined into one word that immediately makes you sound like a nor-cal idiot. Used interchangeably with "a lot" "really" "very" etc. It's totally unnecessary because you could easily just use one of the already established, acceptable synonyms. People who use hella sound unmotivated and poor. Sorry but it's true. This is why LA is so much better.
