Expecting a semi-intelligent readback, tower got garbage, replied, "mesaba xxx, you got everything wrong. Just clear the runway anywhere and then STOP"
AF00n pipes up with "Uh, Tower, Air Frahwnce nnn, do your remember me?"
And my favorite was tower telling someone "switch to New Yahhhk deparure (rhymes with "sock)". Crew didn''t miss a beat, came back with "Rogahhh, New Yahhhhk departure, switching". I really think they were both playing with NY accents. I just about inhaled my G&T laughing.
