Usaf.Boeing_B-52
A B52 was en route to Europe from US but using 243.0 Mhz, the International Aeronautical Emergency Frequency, as a chat frequency, and using bad language. ATC reminded the pilot that 243.0 should only be used for aviation emergencies and not use bad language whatever.
The pilot casually replied “Sir, when you have a B52 strapped to your arse, everything is an emergency”.

It could have been worse.
It could have been a B-36!

The pilots didn’t say “two turning, two burning, two smoking, two joking, and two unaccounted for” about the engines without reason.
