Get the Hurdling mug.Enormous, heavy, imposing. Often used for exaggerated or comic effect, especially when added to another indicator of size (e.g., "big hurking" or "huge hurking"). Compare: huge, beefy. Likely a Pacific Northwest regionalism (see examples, the first 5 of which come from authors who report their location as Washington State). Anecdotally, the word has been in regional use in this sense since at least the 1990s.
