barfing out

Ejecting stomach contents

Barfing out means producing something hastily and without care for quality, as if vomiting it up rather than crafting it thoughtfully: He just barfed out a first draft and called it done.

The phrase suggests careless, high-volume output—writing, code, or creative work expelled rather than composed.
