Guest: You brought it to me on a saucer; what has that to do with the fly in my soup?!
Me: Can you remember everything you did before you noticed the fly in your soup?
Guest: I sat down and ordered the Soup of the Day!

Me: Here you are, Sir. The soup and your check.
Guest: This is potato soup.
Me: Yes, the tomato soup wasn't ready yet.
Guest: Well, I'm so hungry now, I'll eat anything.
