The Kevin Rose Raccoon Toss meme originated from a viral security camera video uploaded by Digg founder Kevin Rose in 2013. In the clip, Rose is seen sprinting out of his house to rescue his dog, Toaster, who was being attacked by a wild raccoon. He heroically grabs the raccoon by its scruff and tosses it down a flight of stairs to end the confrontation. The internet quickly transformed this act of protective bravery into a versatile metaphor for 'yeeting' unwanted problems or toxic influences out of one's life. It remains a legendary clip in tech culture, frequently used to represent swift, no-nonsense solutions to complex or annoying issues.
