It stands for Human Occupied Landfill, and to quote the back of the book:

We know that look.
That "If I have to check for traps one more time, I'm going to sneak a
spoonfull of drain cleaner into the GM's yoo-hu and start screaming 'Guess
you missed your save on *that* one, MR. TEN-BY-TEN STONE CORRIDOR!!'"
Look.
You need help.
You need HOL.
SCIENCE FICTION ROLEPLAYING FOR GAMERS WHO'VE HAD A REALLY BAD DAY.
Get it before you hurt somebody.


Even if you're never going to play it, I'd recommend getting it for the
laughs alone.
