What is Yeat?
1.
A colloquial word used in Newburyport, Massachusetts at least before the Second World War (1939-1945), allegedly shouted from one naval ship to another to identify a resident of Newburyport. Also used to show both affirmation and disapproval ("yes," "no"); first word of the Newburyport slang-phrase "yeat the bun." Yeat can be used as a greeting, as a noun, an interjection, an adjective, and a verb.
John: Yeat!
Mark: Yes, yeat indeed. And how are you doing this fine day?
John: Yeat.
Mark: Ah, not too well. Do you want to go help me do chores?
John: Yeat to that!
Mark: Ah, so you'd rather not. How about the movies.
John: YEAT!
Mark: Great, let's go.

Originating from Newburyport, Massachusetts.
Yeat is a derogatory reaction to display disagreement or discontent with either a person, situation, opinion or proposed situation.
Those who don't understand the usage of the word will often say that it has the capability to take on any meaning the speaker intends. This is completely wrong.
Yeat most often replaces the words and phrases,
"Bullshit" & "Yeah right"
or
Fuck that, You're a fucking (moron, idiot retard, etc)
The origin of the word is from the city's famous Clipper ships from its trade days. It was often used when unloading or loading goods (such as breads). The original usage of the word most closely resembled the word: "Pass"
An example of this:
"Yeat the bun"
The word was later used to identify residents from Newburyport aboard naval ships.
"The Yankees will beat the Sox!"
"Yeah, yeat" (yeah, bullshit)
"Yeat can mean anything you want it to!"
"Yeat" (Bullshit, You're a fucking moron)
When speeding by someone who doesn't know how to drive.
"Yeat!" (You're a fucking moron)
