Noun, abbreviated from 'Homoeroticism, Yay!' The phrase originated from the television programme 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer,' and is used most commonly in various internet fandoms. It can also be an exclamation of glee.

The word is used to describe a homoerotic or homoromantic subtext between two characters, generally on a television show. Where one sees HoYay is, of course, extremely subjective, though in some cases it can be canon, not just subtext, as in the episode of 'Angel' wherein Spike says 'Angel and I were never intimate... apart from that one time.'
'Did you see "House" last night? The HoYay was palpable!'

'Those two totally bring the HoYay.'

'Ahh! HoYay!'

An hodaya is a pretty girl. She has AMAZING eyebrows btw. She is really crazy but only if she is around people who she is VERY close to. Most of the time she looks like a super innocent sweet girl. She will act very insecure which is actually true about her. An Hodaya is generally nice and friendly to everyone even the people she dislikes ( doesn’t hate anyone just dislikes them) You should look out though. An Hodaya might look super cute and innocent but deep down she is vicious. Her true nature will come out around her close friends. Everyone else just thinks she is an angle. An Hodaya probably went through a lot in her life but most people won’t know that. Each person in her life probably doesn’t know as much about her as they think. She is very good at hiding it too but sometimes it all comes bursting out. You should be sweet to an Hodaya because the people who are true with her and genuinely nice will be reworded A LOT. She is very generous. So to sum it up she is generally an amazing person who when needed can take care of herself so don’t let her looks and actions deceive you ( she is really good at that)
Did you see that amazing girl over there?

Yea. Why?

Well that’s Hodaya, I love her!

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
