"Buy the farm" = mua trang trại -> nghĩa là qua đời. Cụm từ này có nhiều xuất xứ nhưng một nguồn thể hiện rõ nhất là khi một người đã hoàn thành nghĩa vụ thì họ sẽ về nhà và mua một trang trại để nghỉ ngơi.

Ví dụ
If this alien ever squared off (tấn công) against pop culture's most iconic action heroes, it would be a sight for the ages. However, which ones would win, and which would buy the farm? Here are five action heroes that could win the day, and five that are simply too outclassed to take the creature on.

For now, let's just say that long before Thanos (Josh Brolin) snapped superheroes dead in Avengers: Infinity War, and even more crime-fighters bought the farm, to so speak, in Avengers: Endgame, good guys such as The Avengers: Age of Ultron's Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) were being offed as if they were easily dismissed bad guys. The MCU landscape is brutal -- and we have the stats to back up that claim.

Yeah when I get to heaven
I'm gonna take that wristwatch off my arm
What are you gonna do with time
After you've bought the farm?
(Bài hát When I Get to Heaven - John Prine)
