"YEET"
YEET by eggman16 April 29, 2019
An extremely expressive word that can be used in many situations.
On one end of the spectrum, "yeet" can be bellowed with a full, guttural sound whilst lobbing an object furiously to assert authority (great for water balloons and empty containers). On the other hand, "yeet" can be used gently, like the faint brush of a butterfly's wings as it crosses one's lips, as one completes a difficult task (i.e. boss in a difficult game, tough question on a math test).
I bet I can hit that bird with this rock. YEET!

Yeet has many defenitions, and can be used in many contexts.

1) Yeet: to send something from point A to point B with exaggerated force. This definition comes from the famous video clip featuring a soda can and a crowded hallway.

2) Yeet: an interjection following or said along with an action. For example, if someone hit a whip then they could use the word yeet to punctuate said action. Please note that someone can punctuate someone else's action.

3) Yeet: to get rid of, or toss (generally discarding.)

DON'T FORGET:

When using the word yeet, one must consider the present tense (to yeet), the past tense (have yote) and the future tense (will yeet).

Please note that the number of E's used in the word only changes its meaning if it is being used as the above shown first definition. Otherwise, you may add as many E's as you wish.
1. Ma'm, I know I shouldn't have yote that pencil, but the student that I yote it at was being a real dickwad.

2. Carlos: *dabs*
Liam: YEEEET!

3. Jenna: this stupid remote control doesn't work. I hate it.
