with little or no preparation or forethought
"his ad-lib comments showed poor judgment"
"an extemporaneous piano recital"
"an extemporary lecture"
"an extempore skit"
"an impromptu speech"
"offhand excuses"
"trying to sound offhanded and reassuring"
"an off-the-cuff toast"
"a few unrehearsed comments"
Without planning or thinking ahead.
without previous thought or preparation
"couldn't give the figures offhand"
"we decided offhand to go to Canada"

in a casually inconsiderate manner
