Country:  | Pilot Talking Rules
The only three things a wingman should ever say are:
* Two's up.
* Lead, you're on fire.
* I'll take the fat chick.
And in a multi-place aircraft, there are only three things the copilot should ever say:
* Nice landing, Sir.
* I'll buy the first round.
* I'll take the fat chick.
A new copilot on a bomber was told to only say these three things and to otherwise keep my mouth shut and not touch anything:
* Clear on the right.
* Outer (marker) on the double (indicator)
* I'll eat the chicken. (Crew meals consisted of one steak and one chicken to avoid possible food poisoning of the cockpit crew).

Country: | Sometimes when my wife's driving I'll tell her "clear right" by accident to let her know no traffic is coming... then I feel like an idiot.

What's her response to "Clear right"? If she says "Roger that" I'd say your compatibility index is pegged to the right. Lucky Man!!!!!!!
