soup?

It's a figure of speech... asking "is it soup yet?" basically means "is it done yet?" I haven't met many people who use that particular expression, but I had an old boss who was from the Pittsburgh, PA, area who used that all the time. Apparently it was inspired by a 1970's era commercial for Lipton soup.[1]

You kids today, you don't know how good you have it. Back in my day we didn't have Internet memes, we had television. Three whole channels of it!

We only had two channels... "off" and a channel full of snowy looking stuff that made a noise like kkkzzzzzzsshshshszzssshshshzzssshhshszzzsshshshzzsshshshszzzsshhhh...

Luxury! we had to make the noise ourselves...
