What is Easy!?
1.
A command, used to calm a person down when that person is getting excessively agitated. The command is also used to settle a person down after that person has done something disturbing.
The command of "EASY!" is pronounced with the accent on both syllables (EEE'-ZEE'), as opposed to the traditional word easy, in which only the first syllable is accented. The command of "EASY!" is usually shouted, which immediately puts the offending person on notice.
Example 1:
Person A: Man, you wouldn't believe all the things I bought at that flea market! The prices were out of this world! So cheap! I'm going back there next week! How come no one told me about that kind of place --
Person B: EASY!!!!
Person A: Okay man, fine, I'll relax.
Example 2:
Person A: <accidentally drops a huge bowl of calamari all over the kitchen floor, and the metal bowl makes a loud crashing sound>
Person B: Hey! EASY!!!
