Stupidest thing you've heard . . .

Yeah Right. I'm sure she just bitched a lot, and blamed the airplane for being soo "environmentally unfriendly".
Mistakes? She's the Mayor! She doesn't make mistakes!!! It's everyone else's fault!
On the side of things that "guys wearing the same uniforms as us" say:
Working with the carrier, there was an HSL bird taking off while we were refueling. It was about 1245 and the carrier asked for his Red Light. "Umm...1330." came the reply. "Say again" from the carrier. "Oh, sorry. 1245." "Yeah, Warbird, I'm going to need you to learn how to do math and then get back to me with your Red Light."
BTW for non-helo or carrier bubbas: Red Light is the time (local) that you expect to have too little fuel to effect a SAR.

She sent the airport the bill for her clothes. Manager tore it up and threw it away.
This was a while before the ECOcraze started.

Not aviation related, but it still is the stupidest thing I've heard to date;
" But she can't be pregnant, she said she was on the pill. "
His child support is 22% of his gross.

My on-wing and I took a T-34C to an airshow about six months back when I was in Primary and had two rather interesting questions from a couple of old-timers.
1) "Do you think this one right here flew in World War II?"
2) "Now the back seat, that's for the gunner - Right?"
1) "Do you think this one right here flew in World War II?"
2) "Now the back seat, that's for the gunner - Right?"
"Yessir, the back seat is where the gunner sits. That switch there arms the gun. We control it using these little black knobs on the left side here, and we fire it using this switch on the lower left panel right here. The gunner locates the target using a FLIR pod on the gun and looking into that little green screen."
The first time I saw a T-34C cockpit someone could have told me this and I totally would have believed them.
Not aviation related but definately something I wanted to hear the end of. Guy talking on his cell phone on a packed campus bus loud enough that we were all getting half the conversation. As he steps off the bus you just hear "Hey man, at least she's not doing heroin".... Bus pulls on.... everybodys kinda quiet and I just go "Am I the only one that wants to know what the hell she's doing that the next worse thing is heroin?"
"And this hood here is concealment for surprise attacks."
I think Vice President Biden said that Roosevelt used the same videocamera to give his radio fireside chats as Lincoln had recording the Gettysburg Address.
Well... I've been guilty of spreading disinformation at airshows before. After a few hours of standing in the sun answering the same questions over and over again, the need to amuse yourself takes over.
"Yes, that screw goes all the way to the tail and holds the plane together."
"That thing on the nose?" (ARBS) "That's the ID scanner to make sure only authorized people are allowed in the cockpit." At that point, have your buddy grab the canopy release and swipe your ID across the ARBS as he pops open the canopy. "See"
"No, this plane doesn't fly. We just tow it out here for airshows"
etc...
