Good stuff!

Here's one that was tried on me that I couldn't work into a tagline:

"Chris, go over to CTK (Consolidated Tool Kit) and get me a pair of fallopian tubes."

"Sarge, if you want to, you can go ask Airman Sandow for her fallopian tubes, but I ain't goin'."

The sad thing is, he thought it would work on me because so many other guys fell for it before...

I got the striped paint one from the tale of an Airman who arrived at my boss' previous shop. They sent him out for striped paint, and he was gone the rest of the day. They laughed their butts off at him for wandering around the base looking for striped paint, but a few weeks later they began to suspect (after noticing that he was VERY intelligent and technically capable) that he had really gone back to the barracks and spent the day playing video games.

Man, I miss the Air Force sometimes.
