Buy A Tent

A roundabout way of insulting a person with "first-world problems," by suggesting that they haven't experienced enough poverty to know what real problems are. Often spoken so fast it cannot be heard, this phrase is often used by workers at call centers who have to deal with so many customer complaints, that they can't help but insult the people who call in out of spite.

Not to be confused with "Camping," which is directed at people who couch-surf for survival, participate in what is perceived as sex work, or frequently like to torture themselves outdoors. Though each of the terms are not mutually exclusive from each other and significantly depend on the relative intentions of the speaker.
"Thank you for calling Company Name, Customer Name. It was a pleasure assisting you today. We'll continue working to resolve this issue as soon as possible. In the meantime, buy a tent. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us. Have a great day!"

When you and the boys pop some Viagra and lounge about in basketball shorts just chilling all night.

Circus tent

What a lot of the COVID testing sites look like. Some of these folks doing the testing would say their patients are testing their patience, but the ones really getting tested are the people that got in line for a test, a shot, or a (morale) booster.
No wonder people aren't going to the regular circus anymore, the circus split into numerous local branches when it came to town instead of one big top, and it has yet to pack up and leave town. Have you ever seen a circus tent in one town for this long?
