This reminds me of a David Letterman skit where Letterman was working at a Taco Bell drivethru. He told a customer that they were out of several drinks in a row and then said something like “ma’am, I need to know what drink you want so that I can tell you we’re out of it” in response to the lady asking what drinks did they have.

Reminds me of an old Soviet joke. A guy walks into a shop, sees how empty it is and asks "You're out of beef?" The clerk explains, "No, the butcher's shop across the street is the one who is out of beef. At this store, we specialize in being out of fish".
Like the good old Monty Python cheese shop :) https://youtu.be/Hz1JWzyvv8A
