Unhelpful Waiter

A man takes a table in a restaurant, and the waiter asks what he would like. The patron says he would like a filet mignon.

"What soup would you like with that?" the waiter asks.

"I don't want soup," the man says. "I want a filet. Nothing else."

"This restaurant specializes in soup, sir," says the waiter. "You must order soup."

"I only want the filet," the man says. "I do not want soup. Repeat, I do not want soup."

"If you don't order soup here, sir, I can't bring you anything else."

"All right," says the patron resignedly. "Bring me some soup."

"I'm sorry, sir," says the waiter. "We're all out of soup."
