Keep reading to learn the best situations where each phrase will work perfectly.
1. Cum and go
“Cum and go” will sound more funnier when you want to send “hit it and quit it” as text. The funniest part is the pun on Come which you replace with “cum” to drive home the meaning.
2. Drip and dip
Funny varieties of “hit it and quit it” make you say even dirty things in the most humorous ways. You “drip” to act like you love each other and then end up “dipping” (intercourse).
3. Shake and skate
Shake and skate have the same denotation as “hit it and quit it.” It’s a more loose way of saying people start a relationship only to end up sleeping together and leaving.
4. Ride and slide
The funny thing about this phrase is the rhyme and the covert words. “Ride” means sleeping together, and “slide” means drifting apart afterward.
5. Shoot and scoot
Again, this one is about rhyme and covert words. But it works best for cases where “hit it and quit it” is used as a noun, not a verb.
6. Ejaculate and evacuate
Even without giving context to this phrase, saying “ejaculate” represents sleeping with someone. That is, hitting it. And quitting would mean evacuating.
7. Smash and dash
“Smash” among many GenZs means sleeping with someone you plan to jilt. And since it rhymes with “dash” (to leave the person after smashing), it sounds funnier.
8. Wham, bam, thanks, man
Both men and women can ask for a one-night stand. If a woman wants to be funny about the experience, she can use this phrase.
9. Knock and rock
It may take a while for someone to get what you mean when you say “knock and rock,” but that’s the main point—to be discreet about the message.
10. Tap and scrap
“Tap and scrap” sounds like an inside joke you can create so that whenever you say it, your guys will know you mean a one-night stand.
11. Hit the spot and trot
Trot means to run at a moderate pace. It’s hilarious because you can rhyme this with “hitting the spot,” which means sleeping with someone.
12. Swing and fling
“Swing and fling” is a creative and funny way to say one-night stands because not only are you using the fling reference, but you are also using the literal meaning of fling.
13. Bang and bounce
Bang is a comedic way to say you had intercourse with someone. So, using a bang and bounce surely makes a joke out of hitting it and quitting it.
14. Do it and split
If you want something simple, you can say, “Do it and split.” This is very clear yet versatile for different contexts.
15. Breed, then proceed
Another way to sound like a comedian when saying “hit it and quit it” is to use “breed then proceed” instead. It’s not just the rhyme; it’s the connotation of the words.
16. Get some brain, then ride the train.
You can use “get some brain, then ride the train” when talking about a one-night stand that is about to happen.
17. Rock her box, then change the locks.
For a more casual and clearer way to make a joke off the original phrase, “rock her box then change the locks” sounds better.
18. Bop and drop
Bop and drop may not immediately sound like the “hit it and quit it” message, but it depends on what you say. For example, you can use it in “I and that lady had a bop and drop.”
19. Tap it and gap it
“Gap it” means to give someone a distance. But of course, this happens after you’ve “tapped.” It’s still the same message as hitting it and quitting it.
20. Jiggle and wiggle
Jiggle means rough movement, this time, on the bed. It describes the movement when mating with someone, and the wiggle represents the drifting apart.
21. Knock and walk
You can use “knock and walk” if you don’t want to sound inappropriate.
22. Push and mush
Push and mush doesn’t exactly have the same point as “hit it and quit it.” It sounds more subtle but will surely inspire a smile or laugh.
23. Slam and scram
You can say “Slam and scram” to sound more dramatic in your tone.
24. Stick and split
Stick can mean many things. But in this context, it’s a verb for having intercourse with someone to split afterward.
25. Bounce in and rush out
The romantic rush can seem exciting when two folks want a one-night stand. That’s why they “bounce in” only to grow apart quickly.
26. Nail and bail
The idea of drilling a nail into a hole is a funny anecdote about making love, so this phrase can fly, too.
27. Nut then strut
To nut is to ejaculate. It’s a symbol for mating. With this in mind, you can always say “nut then strut” instead of “hit it and quit it.”
28. Skeet and yeet
To some people, saying “Hit it and quit it” may not be clear or funny at first. To make people laugh, say “Skeet and Yeet” instead.
29. Score and out the door
Guys usually say, “I scored her,” to mean they’ve slept with the person. This phrase works for any one-night stand or fling situation.
30. Strike and hike
The rhyme in Strike and Hike is hilarious. But the meaning itself is even funnier.
31. Pump and jump
Another common way people refer to intercourse is “pumping.” So when you pump someone and ignore them afterward, it’s a pump-and-jump situation.
32. Pop in and hop out
The idea is to use funny words to describe having sex and then leaving.
33. Knock boots, then scoot
In this context, “knock boots” represent eventually sleeping with someone as another check on your bucket list.
34. Romp and stomp
The English definition of romp is to play roughly and energetically—the kind of play you do with someone on the bed during lovemaking. That makes it a hilarious reference.
35. Get your kicks and hit the bricks
The challenge with this phrase is that someone might mistake it for regret after sleeping with someone because of “hit the bricks.” Make sure the context is clear before using it.
36. Slide and glide
The “slide and glide” phrase has a similar tone to “hit it and quit it,” but it sounds simpler and funnier.
37. Jump in and zip out
“Jump in and zip out” gives a clearer idea of what you mean. It refers to a one-night stand, like when two strangers make out quickly and pretend it never happened.
38. Hump and dump
The rhyme is a hump, and dump alone has a funny tone. But when you say it in the right situation, it will surely earn a laugh from the entire group.
39. Squeeze and breeze
Imagine all the things that happen during lovemaking—the squeezing and thrusting. And then both parties breeze apart like nothing happened.
40. Pounce and bounce
Apart from the poetically funny rhyme, “pounce and bounce” will replace “hit it and quit it” as a humorous alternative in many contexts.
41. Thrill and chill
The thrill of making out with someone for the first time, especially a consenting stranger, is undeniable. But imagine both parties just chill apart afterward.
42. Pop and hop
“Pop and hop” is a loose, shorter version of “hit it and quit it.” Since “pop” means doing something briefly, it fits the idea well.
43. Thrust and dust
“Thrusting” gives the image of penetration during intimacy, and “dust” isn’t just for humor—it represents the “quit it” part afterward.
44. Zip in and flip out
Zip in and flip out sounds silly but still conveys the message of sleeping with someone and moving on afterward. And silly things are usually the funniest.
45. Clap and snap
“Clap” usually means applause, but it also refers to the sound made during lovemaking. In a fling, the “clap” happens first, followed by the “snap”—the parting afterward.
46. Grind and unwind
“Grind and unwind” will also surely work for a “hit it and quit it” context. This time, the intention is to plant a smile on the listener’s face.
47. Snag and flag
When you snag someone, you’ve finally succeeded in having your way with them after several attempts. And as with most fling situations, it ends with flagging (moving on to the next).
48. Dip and skip
This funny take on “hit it and quit it” comes from Tinder’s design, where you swipe away from matches you’re not interested in. But before moving on, you have a quick fling just for the thrill.
49. Hit and quit
“Hit and quit” simply means something one-time, which is different from the primary phrases. Removing “it ” eliminates the need for specification.
50. Poke and smoke
“Poke and smoke” is a funny way to describe a playboy who charms girls just to sleep with them and then moves on. You could say, “All he does with girls is poke and smoke.”
Final thoughts
There are plenty of more considerate ways to talk about casual encounters or short-term flings without using “hit it or quit it.”
Terms like “no-strings-attached relationship” or “friends with benefits” work fine, but they don’t have the same humor as “hit it and quit it.”
