Ahh, SDF!

LUUKE IMYUR FADDR or something like that is on one of the SIDS. Also a couple STARs named after the pilots that were killed on UPS 6, a nice touch.

I always laugh to myself when I hear people get direct WHAMY leaving Portland.

There's a fix on one of the departures out of PHX called Mr. Bill (don't know how they spell it) that I frequently hear people getting cleared to.

Ganja on most of the arrivals from the NW into the DFW area.

Definition of ganja

1. 
   : a potent and selected preparation of marijuana used especially for smoking; broadly : marijuana

Ha. I've heard people getting cleared there quite a bit over West TX and Eastern NM.

I've only heard it a few times but I've heard people get cleared direct TIMMY. I wanted to key the mic and and shout TIMMAY!

I want some fixes at SFO renamed. CAPTN, SUMMM, TINGG, WONNG... etc

But maybe not really PC.

This deserves a White House petition, gofundme, or kickstarter or something.

Me too! I still haven't found that fix anywhere.

There used to be an arrival to Cincinnati with a DRESR intersection. Routine clearance was "NXXXXX, cross DRESR at FL 240".

BWI has DRRES on the Trish arrival. "Cross DRRES at 10,000".

To add to the thread, had a pilot say "Can we get LAYED?". I was confused, so I asked them to clarify. Their response was "We just wanna get LAYED". So I opened up their route, and sure enough there it was, and I cleared them there. Was worth a laugh.
