[Syringer]

Some say it's a Nor Cal thing..or is it?

 

[Walleye]

[notfred]

People in Santa Cruz make fun of people form the valley (and silicon valley) when they get 'hella' lost looking for the boardwalk. So, although I live in the valley, no I do not say 'hella'.

<- from Santa Cruz.

when i was a freshy at berkeley, 'hella' use to annoy me (I'm from SoCal). after a few years, the phrases sorta grows on you and now I say it all the time.

hella tight yo!

 

[hawkeye81x]

I really only say hella (and improperly used) around people I know from Nor Cal.

 

[PrincessGuard]

Who the hell says "hecka?"

 

[Kadarin]

Damn.. the expression "hella" is old; I remember using it during the late '80s / early '90s. Every once in a while it slips out nowadays, but I try to avoid talking like that. I prefer to use proper english, yo.

 

[Scouzer]

thats a heckuva poll you got there.

i voted hella.

 

[LiLRiceBoi]

It's hella hot in so cal.

 

[RabidMongoose]

The only time I ever heard someone say 'hella' was in the bay area.

 

[Skyclad1uhm1]

You are gay.

 

[wicktron]

It is a NorCal thing, but I do hear it sparingly in SoCal.

 

[Hossenfeffer]

Hecka has GOT to be a mormon thing or something

Same thing with "fetch", "oh my heck", etc.

Was in Montana last week and heard some older woman (50-55 or so) say that some baby was "hecka cute". Was the first time I'd ever heard it.

[Ornery]

People who use those words are prolly retarded.

 

[conjur]

"Stop saying hella, Cartman!"

 

[gigapet]

how about the option not from cali but from the northeast and occasionally it slips out when i get excited.

 

[AU Tiger]

I have only heard or seen the word HELLA in ATOT and in the No Doubt song.

 

[Spooner]

LOL I don't say hella, neither do I say leet or LOL, to me those are things you type not something you say heh.
