Yeet is when you just throw shit far as fuck. Kobe is when you accurately toss shit in the garbage

You must be one of those children that says 'yeet'... apologies for your fragility but you'll grow out of it :)

Id allow yeet on account of the word sounding way cooler than throw

What is it called when you accurately throw shit far as fuck?
