stay cool

Don't lose it

Stay cool is an informal way of telling someone to remain calm or composed, especially under pressure: Stay cool—they're just trying to get a reaction out of you.

As a parting phrase, it's a casual farewell wishing someone well, roughly equivalent to "take care" but with a laid-back tone: All right, stay cool, man.
