I don't have a problem with new slang in general - it's interesting to see what new words become popular. Sometimes, though, I just don't like them. I never got used to "yeet" and still dislike it.
Ugh… yeet and Kobe were some of the best at that time for me.
Like yeet sounds somewhat like an onomatopoeia. Like the sound of it flying through the air.
Yeah, it just never connected with me. Which is fine, since I'm an old fart Gen X and it's not for me anyway.
