Typical in Madrid , place where I come from.
Por Ejemplo "Tirate el pisto e invítate a unas cervezas" "¿ No me dejas 5 euros ? ¡Anda y tírate el pisto ! " Means " be cool" in the sense of being generous like " be a good buddy" or " behave good with me" Nothing to do with "Pisto" alone , which is a typical Spanish food made of tomatoes , peppers and spices.
