I used to work in Ambient Soho (when it was alive!) and was amazed at
the sheer number of people who apparently misread the shop's name as
"80s Spandex Metal, Progressive Rock and Indie Guitar Soho". At least
they were all quite easy to get rid of ("hello, do you have any def
leppard?" "no"), unlike the two dodgy jungle producers who nearly had a
gunfight in the shop after one accused the other of having bootlegged
his track. We were all ducking behind the counter, but after the two
belligerents eventually took it outside, we listened to the disputed
record and decided it was crap anyway.

But being part of the ambient scene, we didn't really "do" impatient,
just disinterested... :)
