"Hold Your Horses":

1. Old people understand what you're saying.

2. Evokes images of Cowboys. Cowboys are cool.

3. Alliteration.


"Slow Your Roll":

1. Street cred.

2. Easy to add "..Son" to the end to denote seniority.

3. ???


Hybrid phrase - "Hold Your Roll":

1. Means nothing, but is likely to cause listeners to both slow their roll and hold their horses out of confusion.

2. Could be used as a euphemism for holding onto your money, or something else of value. As long as the listener does this instead of what they were doing previously, they have effectively held their horses. Mission accomplished.
 
i've never heard "slow your roll"

Apparently living in a cave in Montana has not stopped you from getting internet access.

doesn't slow your roll have something to do with robotripping

No, it does not. Big points for mentioning robotripping though.

It looks like "Hold your Horses" is going to run away with this.
 
Hold on there sport.

"Check yourself before you wreck yourself" - if you're not into the whole brevity thing. Has the advantage of also threatening the target.
