pilot cant stop talking on radio  

Guess I am old and grumpy but man some of these pilots and their constant talking on the radio. Non of it is safety related and most of it is pure stupidity. Calling approach with their ID, then calling again with their request, then repeating the reply, then calling to say they recieved the reply from approach again. Brevity pilots, what happened to brevity and limiting calls to those required/needed? Lack of knowledge and basic pilot skills
