The “Phoneyetic” Alphabet

In our club meeting on 17 October 2019, we discussed the importance of using correct, concise terminology and language when relaying messages.  We are all familiar with the standard NATO phonetic alphabet as used in amateur radio... a copy of which is included here for your reference:

I present here a "humorous" version of the alphabet that I call "Phoneyetic"... you'll see why in a moment.
