I think it is just kind of like an exclamation/sound effect, if you will, used when something funny happens. I was mistaken I think about what I said about it being used when something goes flying. ![]() I would recommend you just listen and pay attention to when the streamers say it because it is almost always in direct response/direct correlation to something that happened or something they did! I hope this helps a bit! □Īctually I agree with too. like if you knock someone/something over, if you steal something from someone, if something goes flying, etc. For example, Dang his sandwich just got yoinked right out of his hand by a seagull (actually happened to my brother in law) Otherwise I’d probably say “Dang, his sandwich just got snatched right out of his hands by a seagull” -there are a lot of words that mean steal, but this one is commonly used. ![]() I have heard it used with the other meaning though to mean like to steal. If I were playing halo or something and got catapulted by something or went flying or shot something or exploded something to go flying I might say “yoink!” while laughing In your situation they’re probably saying it when something goes flying. I’ve heard yoink with both of these meanings.
