Skeets

Skeets is a term that can refer to several distinct things, primarily a type of shooting sport and a slang term.

In the context of shooting sports, skeet shooting is one of the three major disciplines of clay pigeon shooting, alongside trap and sporting clays. The objective is to shoot flying clay targets, or "clay pigeons," thrown from two elevated houses. The targets are released in a consistent pattern and trajectory, requiring shooters to anticipate their flight path and hit them with a shotgun. Skeet shooting is a recognized sport in the Olympic Games and is practiced by recreational shooters worldwide. It emphasizes precision and quick reaction times.

As slang, "skeet" is often used as a shortened form of "skeet skeet," which originated from the Pimp C and Bun B song "International Players Anthem (I Choose You)" by UGK featuring OutKast. The phrase has been interpreted in various ways, sometimes referring to a person who is perceived as promiscuous or easily swayed, or in other contexts, simply as an exclamation of excitement or approval. The meaning can vary significantly depending on the context and the speaker's intent. Due to its slang origins and potential for misinterpretation, its usage is often informal and can be considered vulgar by some.
