    Aw c’mon, I kind of like yeeted, it’s better than chucked. But then I’m in my 60s so I’ve seen a lot of slang come and go.

      I like some pop-slang, not others. “Neckbeard” is pretty good, because there wasn’t quite a word like that, and it really does capture a certain type. Meanwhile, “yeet” doesn’t mean anything to me, and wasn’t needed in the slightest IMO.

      Languages naturally change over time, but usually that’s down to stuff like peoples mixing, and new situations & tech coming along, or dying out. This pop-slang stuff is okay for what it is, but I also feel the OC captured the other side of how useless it can be.
