About
You've Yeed Your Last Haw is a slang expression based on the cowboy-associated interjection "yee-haw". Originating from a viral tweet and a development of Sad Cowboy Emoji memes, the expression was later combined with an image of Supernatural character Dean Winchester and circulated as an image macro.
