I once heard it described as a verb tense of "yoink" and that made me feel a lot better about it slipping into my regular usage.

I'm still cheugy af tho, according to my 26 year old roommate, so maybe don't take advice from me.

Take it easy, homeslice xx

As far as I know it's the opposite of yoink.

Yoink = taking something quite aggressively. Yeet = throwing about something.
