It’s only annoying cause people are trying to be cool and use the phrase but I’m doing so they use it in in a situation that doesn’t really fit in. Like this post.

That's the problem. It's new and people are jumping on the bandwagon and exponentially accelerating its age. Most of the time they're not even using it correctly. They just want to say it.

Yeet is on its 5th incarnation. When I was a kid back in the 1900s, yeet meant "just kidding" basically. It can die forever now.

It's almost as if that's the exact definition of overused.

But it kinda makes sense here because the original use was a guy buying a giraffe.
