Doing touch and goes at an uncontrolled airport, with an old student of mine, we overheard a student pilot say...
"Rio Vista traffic, Cessna NXXXX, left final, runway 25, Rio Vista..."
and then about 30 seconds later.....
"Rio Vista traffic, Cessna NXXXX, left upwind, runway 25, Rio Vista..."
"Rio Vista traffic, Cessna NXXXX, left final, runway 25, Rio Vista..."

This one was from a Air Force KC135 pilot buddy of mine. He told me he was on a routine refueling mission gassing up a squadron of F-15s. One of the pilots tried to show off to my buddy in the 135 over the radio and make him jealous of the fighter...
Eagle Driver: Hey gas man! check this out!!
[Eagle driver does a couple aileron rolls, showboating and what not.. trying to inspire jealousy]
135 pilot: (without missing a beat, im sure) Hey thats pretty cool. Watch this...
[two or three minutes go by while the copilot takes the radios and gives no mention of whats going on despite the constant inquiries from the fighter pilot]
After getting upset and frustrated with no response from the KC135 pilot...
135 Pilot: Did you see that?
F-15 pilot: no! what the hell did you do?
135 pilot: I just finished my coffee and took a crap! lets see you try that.

Express Jet 123...."Pimped"

Center...."Citrus 123, how do you read"
Me...."On a fifth grade level, why?"

Back when I was training with Pan Am at DVT airport, a common reporting point on the ground was next to or abeam Cutter Aviation. A nerves student once called:
Dear Valley ground Pan Am 25 Laser Beam Cutter with information foxtrot nw departure.
You could hear the laughter in the tower when they got their clearance.

Good news! I remembered some more...
Center: Cirrus 123 say airspeed
123: Cirrus 123, 110 indicated
Pilot 2: Thats a fast moving cloud!
Alright, this is a long one, I heard it once, but I dont know if its true...
Some F16 is on a PAR and of course, tower just has the mic down. Mind you that the approach is pretty tight with mountains on both sides. A fly starts buzzing around the control room. The tower controllers supervisor hands him a rolled up newspaper, and the controller starts batting around trying to kill the fly while still proceeding on the approach. Finally the fly lands on the scope, and forgetting that the mic was still hot, tower says, "watch me kill this sucker right now!"
The F16 promptly declared he was going missed.

Out doing landings with a commercial student one day:
Me: Tower, Sioux 84 will be full stop.
GFK Tower: Nuh uh.
Me: Ok, I guess we can do some more.
GFK Tower: The landings are here if you want 'em.
Me: Alright, we're game.
GFK Tower: That's better, Sioux 84 cleared stop and go, runway 35L.
Not too funny, but it was unexpected.
