Flying from LGA yesterday, heard ATC calling an aircraft.
ATC: Flight XXX, say mach number.
Flight: Mach number.
ATC: I love a guy with a sense of humor. Prepare to copy holding instructions.

He was kidding. I love ATC with a sense of humor.
 
ATC: "Twin Cessna ----, Say Airpspeed"
Twin Cessna: "Airspeed"
ATC: "Twin Cessna -----, say heading."
Twin Cessna: "Heading"
ATC: "Twin Cessna ----- say cancel IFR"
 
I actually heard this one night on the radio in my freight dog days:

Anonymous: "Center, I am F*****G bored"
Center: "Calling center please repeat your tail number?"
Anonymous: "I said I was f****g bored not f*****g stupid"

Heard at STL some years ago...on a dark and stormy night fit for man nor beast...

The evening push, scads of TWA and TWE planes jamming every taxiway...

"TWXXX I told you to follow the company MD80"

unidentified TW "Watzzamatta, can't you tell a 717 from a MD 80?"

"Guess not, but I can tell a good tower from a bad tower"

Sure ya did...
 
This is a little different, but about 2 weeks ago I was doing the Korry3 into LGA and an Air Wisky had a stuck mic. Must have been their first time in New York, because they sounded very excited when they shouted, "We're gonna fly right up the fukin Hudson!"

It was priceless.

I was a controller at PSM tower and heard this on BOS ARTCC freq. 128.2 in the 80's about 3am. I imagine it has been said several times.
