Air Traffic Control - SNL

"your accent is very thick, is it possible to not have it?" omg i am dying 😂😂

[@Spikey7]

Ive had people say similar to me, its pretty funny hearing them really confused

[@carolinamurtha3102]

I grew up with immigrant parents and my mom doesn’t have a thick accent, my dads was super thick. If he watched too much Spanish news, I couldn’t understand him for an hour afterwards. But at the coffee shop I work at, whenever someone orders and has a thick Spanish accent, almost all my coworkers get their order wrong and I have to correct it. They’re always like “how did you know what they said?” Trust me, I had a lifetime of practice for this moment. Now watching this, if this is what my dad sounded like to some people, no wonder he had a hard time being understood 😂😂😂.

Retired United pilot here. Love this skit!

I laughed so hard watching this because it is so accurate. All of the U.S. pilots were continually asking the controllers to repeat themselves, I am sure that it irritated the crap out of them. We would look at each other in the cockpit and say "what the hell did he say?" My last 5 years of flying over there before I retired at the end of 2020 were much easier to understand them.

I listened intently for sometime to try and identify the language until I heard the word early. I called home as soon as I could to narrate that experience.

Deep breath, right! Deep breath! And you need to stay calm Now listen to me very carefully. On the wee panel of switches in front of you there is a brown doo-dah with a red jack about the size of a, fucking, what do you call it... American cookie. Not a Keebler? No alright. Theres a small thing the size of an oreo cookie, right? I thought it was a Keebler. What's the doo-dah coming in at (reading)? Mate, the brown doo-dah that looks like an oreo cookie. What's it coming in at? No, brown. The colour brown. Yes! What's the brown doo-dah coming in at? Good. Two heads are better than one. Right, have a little look out the window down at the ground. Tell me if you can see Auchentoshan Plane Station. Listen big man we're only going to get one shot at this. The little burgundy thing on the dash, give it a little tug. Oh no, no, oh my God.

A few notes: Doo-dah is a word used to refer to an object you can't remember the name of. Wee Man is "little man". You can use this to refer to anyone male, even if you don't know them personally. Auchentoshan is a whisky distillery near Glasgow.
