When someone is wasting time doing something generally stupid or pointless.
Can be partying, wasting money, swearing, or anything that doesn't have a straight purpose.
Comes from the letter "Y," which sounds like "why?"
It's a reminder that you need to have the why in what you're doing - how does it benefit you?
Derived from the original idea behind the "Y" - asking "why?" before you do anything.
When you're yooning, you're not asking that question. You're just doing things that don't move you forward or serve a purpose.
This guy’s a yooner. All he does is drink alcohol and fuck around. We told him to stop yooning.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
