Get the boricua hasta la muerte mug.Surname; derivative of the Italian/Jersey word for "hammer".
Martellas are recognized for their life skillz, intelligence, technical prowess, good looks, mainframe- operating proficiency, beast-mode abilities, and social expertise.
A penchant for sweet shit (esp. weaponry) is a common trait among the descendants of the Martella clan. Martellas prefer pizza- based food products, but occasionally will go out to eat for some dank Vietnamese.
Well known Martellas include the SUPERMARTELLABROTHERS (SMB): professional urban guerillas, street racers, and disc golfers, as well as lesser-known Vincent Martella, from Everybody Hates Chris.

there are no examples that can be put into writing that accurately describe the epicness of thinking about or just being in the presence of a Martella.

He will never figure out how stupid and wrong he is you see, because of his mental disabilities from his birth, and when he was dropped as a baby for his head was larger than a normal child.
