Asking the right questions?

A man goes into a restaurant.
He's having a bowl of soup and he says to the waiter, “Waiter come taste the soup.”
The waiter says, “Is something wrong with the soup?”
He says “Taste the soup.”
The waiter says again, “Is there something wrong with the soup? Is the soup too hot?”
The man says again, “Will you taste the soup?“
“What's wrong, is the soup too cold?" Replies the waiter.
“Will you just taste the soup?!”
“All right, I'll taste the soup,” says the waiter, “where's the spoon??”
“Aha. Aha! ...”
