Listen to this snippy exchange between an Aer Lingus pilot and New York City air traffic control

I can’t remember the exact details, but here’s the gist of a tale that tickled me. A US Navy ship was passing a Royal Navy ship and decided to comment on their ally’s odd name.

“HMS Terrible? What kind of a name is that for ship?”

“Who the fuck is Wayne E. Meyer, and does he know you’ve stolen his boat?”
