The good old days of having PanAm in Florida it was not uncommon to hear students who were about fourth in line for departure insist they were number one and ready for departure. Also very common to hear them say:
"Pan Am 45 Me Land now!"
when requesting landing clearance.

Student "Fort Pierce Tower, N5489 12miles NW with Tango request rejoin for fullstop 14"

ATC "N5489, Fort Pierce Tower, Join the left downwind for runway 32"

Student "N5489 Request rejoin for fullstop 14"

ATC "N5489 Runway 32 is in use, report left downwind runway 32"

Student "N5489 Request Runway 14"

ATC "N5489 Runway 32 is in use, report left downwind runway 32"

Student "I am on Cross Country and my instructor told me I must land on runway 14"

ATC "N5489 Runway 32 is in use, you can't land on 14, join the left downwind for runway 32 and report downwind"

Student "Request runway 14"

ATC "I'll tell you what N5489 fly Southbound until I tell you to fly Eastbound for runway 32"....
