when i had just got my pvt license, was on a trip into the bravo when i heard something like this.

MCI APP: "United xxx climb and maintain 13 thousand"
(no response)
MCI APP: "United xxx did you copy?"
(no response)
MCI APP: "United xxx how do you hear this frequency?"
United XXX: "Whoops, was hitting the wrong button, sorry about that approach"

Then today, we got an akward taxi instruction from ground control at a delta airport (military/civil) which was going to make us back-taxi, not thinking much of it we did as we were instructed. As we were taxiing we recieved this call.

Gnd: "Seneca 18X, St. Joe Ground"
(after thinking, "crap" what'd we do")
Seneca 18X: "18X go ahead"
Gnd: "Yeah, 18X, what's with the big Jack-ass on your tail?"
Seneca 18X: "Come again?"
Gnd: "Yeah, you've got a big ass on your tail, what's that all about?"
Seneca 18X: "Well, we go to CMSU."
Gnd: "And?"
Seneca 18X: "Well, our mascott is the Missouri Mule"
Gnd: "Ah, roger, ass on the tail, 18X contact tower on 126.9"
