Usually uttered by a very pissed off NCO when informed of something unsat(isfactory). A lengthened version of STAND BY, meaning to await further instructions, in this phrase, that person told to stand by better be trembling in their boots, have their shit squared away, locked and cocked and waiting for an asschewing.
"You better make sure that head (bathroom) is clean and the Gunny likes it or you can Stand the fuck by on getting out of here this weekend."
"No, sir."
"STAND THE FUCK BY, DID YOU JUST TELL ME NO, RECRUIT!!!???"

Military term for when you know you're fucked and have no chance of winning, but you fight anyway to keep it going as long as possible.
This is our last stand.

The track stand is a bicycle maneuver in which the cyclist perches over the bike, trying to hold it almost stationary. The track stand may look, to a non-cyclist as if the rider is about to lunge forward, which may happen if the cyclist loses control of the bike.
To “track stand” is to hold a bicycle more or less stationary by perching over the cycle and rocking back and fourth slightly such that it does not fall down, as it would if it were completely still.
This move is easier to perform on a fixed-gear, or (racing) track bike, hence the name. The direct drive from pedals to drivetrain on a ‘track bike’ allow the cyclist to gently rock back and fourth. Timed track stands competitions now feature at many bike messenger and fixed bike enthusiast meets.
The move is also used widely by mountain bikers. Since the freewheel, which only engages when the cranks are pedaled forward, is common on mountain bikes, the technique usually involves a slight incline so that the cyclist can gently pedal up and allow the bike to rock back. This allows a biker to pause before negotiating a particularly technical bit of terrain such as a deep crevasse, a jump or a stream.
Any cyclist can hold a track stand on any bike for about fifteen seconds, often long enough for a light to change color, or enough of a pause to stop for a stop sign without stepping off of the pedals and leaving the riding position.
Like a lot of US slang, the term can be used as a noun or a verb, or even an adjective for the particularly linguistically obtuse.
The Chinese acrobat busted a track stand and then 30 people made a pyramid on top of her and the bike.
When I hold a track stand at an intersection, drivers think that I am trying to bomb through, not stand still, perhaps due to the perched-over-the bike position.
Dude, time me while I do a track stand on my new fixie – while wearing tight jeans, $2,000 worth of trendy clothing and a bunch of heavy shit stuffed into a messenger bag.

Someone you sit next to in an orchestral setting. These relationships often extend beyond a musical friendship and often can be confused with a more intimate relationship. It is not uncommon for stand partners to share a bed, participate in couples yoga, share food, and cuddle.
"How are you spending your easter vacation?"
"My stand partner is taking me back to her house to finally meet the family. We also might participate in couples yoga while there!"
