spits out
Rapidly produces output
Spits out means to eject something from the mouth, or by extension, to produce or deliver something rapidly and often forcefully.
A machine spits out receipts, a program spits out data, a person spits out angry words.
The phrase suggests quick, somewhat crude output—not carefully crafted but expelled: The printer just spits out page after page, She spat out the accusation before he could respond.
