A character sprays spit from their mouth when they talk. Sometimes they're just careless and don't realize what they're doing. Other times, they're spitefully doing it on purpose, or just don't care. Either way, it serves to establish the character as rude or uncouth.
Usually, the spit will be sprayed in the face of whoever the spit-sprayer is talking to, but on rarer occasions it could end up in food or just making a mess. This may be played for its grossout value, and/or for the entertainment value of seeing the spittee's angry reaction.
Most spit-sprayers are male, as Guys are Slobs. Many of them are also loudmouths, which goes hand-in-hand with spraying spit for two reasons: not only is it easier to end up doing it while talking loudly, but someone who doesn't care if they're talking too loudly is less likely to care about the grossness of spraying spit.
Compare Drool Deluge and Ocular Gushers.

The Curse of the Were-Rabbit: At one point Victor Quartermaine corners Wallace and confronts him about their shared feelings for Lady Tottington, stressing that he is not going to let "some puddle-headed peasant poach her from me", with each p-word sending droplets of spit in Wallace's face.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Tim the Enchanter goes on an explosive shouty speech about the danger posed by the Killer Rabbit, whilst spitting a lot towards Arthur and his knights. In this case, the spitting serves more to emphasize his Large Ham status rather than any jerkass qualities he may have.

Cursed Princess Club: When Princess Aurelia is loudly and angrily berating Gwendolyn for relying so much on the charity of the Cursed Princess Club when she's not even cursed herself, spit is visibly flying out of her mouth. The fact that Aurelia's Curse makes her saliva acidic makes this far less humorous than most other examples, though thankfully it doesn't hit anyone or anything important.

Cool World: A nameless patron in a bar where Lonette works has a huge overbite, a dedicated lisp, and cannot speak a sentence without saliva galore. He at first demands more service, and when told to be patient, asks for a kiss from Lonette. Her response is, "Say it, don't spray it." This boorish 'toon bugs out when Detective Harris shows up.

Dear Dumb Diary features a side character who garners the nickname "Spitty Elizabeth" from the narrator, Jamie. Elizabeth, who tries out for a band Jamie's setting up (which doubles as tryouts for Jamie to find a new friend to balance the dynamic in her group) is described as spraying saliva when she speaks and Jamie worries about her soaking a concert audience were she to actually join their band.

Looney Tunes has Daffy Duck who is famously portrayed as either a zany pest or a narcissistic glory hound. The one thing that remains consistent across his appearances is a tendency to spit when he speaks. To a lesser extent is Sylvester the Cat, who has a similar speech impediment and is usually portrayed as a crude antagonistic foil to Tweety Bird. Tasmanian Devil is also prone to spitting while he talks (well, screeches) and often makes it worse by Blowing a Raspberry at the end of his sentences.

Friends: Joey gets a big role in a World War I movie, only to discover that his co-star (played by Gary Oldman) spits when delivering his lines. When Joey confronts him about it, the co-star explains that he's doing it deliberately as part of an acting technique for better enunciation. Thus, Joey decides to do it himself and their next scene sees the two of them soaked with spit as they congratulate each other on the great take they just filmed.
