No, there needs to be complete and total radio professionalism!
None of this "Check in" or "With you" garbage.
It's not "Clearance to Chicago" it's "IFR to Chicago"
If O'hare ground says "Tango Whiskey Echo Alpha Hotel Uniform Alpha-bridge cross 4L give way to the second united on Alpha" I better hear that whole clearance read back verbatim - even if it means stepping on the controller while he gives taxi instructions to 5 other aircraft.
It's "Niner" not "nine" "Tree" not "three" and "FIFE" not "five"
Oh, you are out of "Flight level 24.3 for 280"? I didnt know we had decimal level flight levels!
Make sure you let that guy know he is on guard that accidentally called in range! Make sure you advise him to check his frequency.
Who is Casey center?
Where in the pilot/controller glossary is "a little nibble every now and then" an adequate definition of turbulence?

I think that anyone that's been in ORD knows that to be sarcasm. You'll ****em off if you read that back verbatim. A few years ago there was a guy that did a PA announcment over ORD tower freq. It was a full blown "welcome aboard" and it was one of those days in ORD. Tower guy let him have it and about 5 other guys took a fun poke at him too. In the end, nobody died and everyone got their clearances. I too would rather fly with MLB guy vs the training dept stiff.

It's not until one starts flying in countries when the primary language isn't English that you truly begin to appreciate the importance of standardized phraseology.
Call me anal, but with regards to the original poster, comments like those fall under the category of "it's better to keep your mouth shut and have people think you're stupid than to open your mouth and confirm it."
