take it outside
Settle this elsewhere
Take it outside is an invitation or demand to move a confrontation outdoors, where a physical fight can happen away from bystanders or breakable property: You want to settle this? Let's take it outside.
The phrase appears in bars, parties, and other indoor settings where tensions escalate.
It can also mean simply moving any disruptive argument elsewhere: If you two are going to keep yelling, take it outside.
