What the heck does "teh" mean?

it's a common misspelling of the word "the".

People use it because they are using it in a satirical way to mock stupid people. Or they are just being silly.

1337 = leet, or elite. This is the "language" used when everyone talks like that.

Stupid Speech. If you were an idiot and you wanted to say "the", you would say "teh"

That or quick typing misspelling.
