Hooflah is a calque of the French "houp-là", and therefore a cognate of "hoopla", although distinct in it's meaning.

The French term can mean to "excite a horse" - which is where hoopla gets its meaning- or can be generally used to call someone, as in to get there attention. The latter use giving hooflah it's meaning, and likening it to the term "calling someone out". i.e calling someone on their bullshit etc.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
