OMG. ROTFLMAO Scotz. That is funny. Here's one I experienced.

One time in Chicago I was going to dinner with a man from Mobile, Alabama. The restaurant was very busy and within a minute or two of delivering him a salad and me a bowl of soup, the waiter was back. Obviously, they were trying to rush people through. He picked up my yet uneaten soup and asked, "Are you done, sir?"

It's only about 7PM and people are all around us. I replied in a not too quiet voice, "Why, are you closing?" The guy I was with and people at the surrounding tables turned, looked and started laughing. The waiter set my soup back down with an, "Excuse me."

Next time he came by the bowl was totally empty. This time, before touching the bowl he sheepishly asked, "Are you done now, sir?"
