Which words do you mean? Because I understand them all. They convey information, the fundamental point of language, hence they don't detract. Just because you can't make sense of them doesn't mean they're nonsense.
If you're talking about "Mach Yeet", yeet refers to forceful movement. This specific combination then means really fucking fast. The exact speed doesn't matter. The frivolity of the language underscores their excitement or might just be their idiolect.
Either way, so long as it's nothing hateful or harmful (beyond hurting your linguistic sensibilities), trying to police other people's vocabulary is narrow-minded and needlessly stuck-up.
Why don't you yeet that shit (throw it far away) and come join us in watching the fascinating evolution of language?
