About

I'm At Soup, also known as Soup Store, is an animated meme in which two characters are shown yelling at each other over a phone call: One character requires another's presence, but the other is occupied with shopping for clothes and can't find anything but soup. As the former character instigates the other character's search, s/he discovers that the other is in a store which sells nothing but soup.

Origin

The skit was first created in an abridged parody of Code Geass – called Code MENT – for its sixteenth episode, uploaded to YouTube on May 2nd, 2015 by PurpleEyesWTF.[1] A snippet of the scene was posted on May 4th, 2015 by YouTuber AndeePasta, gaining over 3 million views.




(Lelouch Lamperouge, from his dining room, calls Suzaku Kururugi on a cell phone. Suzaku answers his cell phone in a grocery store.)
Lelouch: Hello?
Suzaku: Hey, what's up?
Lelouch: I need your help, can you come here?
Suzaku: Uh, I can't, I'm buying clothes.
Lelouch: Alright, well hurry up and come over here.
Suzaku: I can't find them.
Lelouch: What do you mean you can't find them?
Suzaku: I can't find them, there's only soup.
Lelouch: What do you mean there's only soup?
Suzaku: It means there's only soup!
Lelouch: Well then get out of the soup isle!
Suzaku: Alright you don't have to shout at me!
(Suzaku walks down an isle.)
Suzaku: There's more soup!
Lelouch: What do you mean there's more soup?
Suzaku: There's just more soup!
Lelouch: Go into the next isle!
Suzaku: There's still soup!
Lelouch: Where are you right now?
Suzaku: I'm at soup!
Lelouch: What do you mean you're "at soup?"
Suzaku: I mean I'm at soup!
Lelouch: What store are you in?
