A small foam pad with Velcro straps used to cover the sharp steering stem of a BMX bicycle, thus hopefully preventing ball-busting injury in the event of a crash. Popularized in the 1980's, they have fallen out of favor in more recent years secondary to the fact that they are not considered cool, and they don't really work anyway.
Hey dude...that's a rockin' nard guard you got there. Now all you need are some elbow pads and training wheels and you'll be ready for Pee Wee's Playhouse!
To help others who are having difficulty in a situation you are familiar with.
John, having been in a similar situation when he was a child, decided to strife-guard the boy who was too afraid to go down the slide.
To put a sheet of toilet paper in the toilet before a power poop to eliminate sound and splashback

A term that is often used while playing fighting games, especially Super Smash Brothers Melee. One who edge guards stands at the edge of the platform and continuously smashes the opponent off of the edge. Eventually, the opponent will no longer be able to make it back onto the platform, which will result in his or her death.
Marth, you fucking cheap son of a bitch! Why don't you go somewhere else and stop edge guarding!

The independent subcategory of a marching unit, which consists of 20 (estimate) or more individuals who don't just "twirl", or spin batons or whatever. In reality, Color Guard is a highly aggressive sport which requires the knowledge of how to throw a rifle, or a sabre, which is basically a huge-ass sword that you toss/wave around into people's face. BTW, in winterguard, you're legit 10 feet away from the audience-but that's a different story. The CENTRAL point of this definition is, color guard is not a bunch of "geeks" who spin flags. We're some pretty badass motherfuckers.
"I wish I was in color guard."

A section of the marching band that spins/tosses a variety of different "weapons" including sabers, rifles, flags, and air blades. Generally gets made fun of by members of the winds and drum line. Guard members are the only ones who can describe how it feels to toss high into the air and catch perfectly, while staying in step and looking pretty. Because really, that's the only point of the guard; to look good.
Angry band member: "I hate color guard. They're always in the way, and they have it so easy. Everyone knows they only join because they suck at their instrument and aren't good enough to be on the cheer squad or dance team."
Guard member: "Hello, we have to run around you guys the entire parade, have practices twice as long as yours and three times as often. I play first chair on sax along with french horn and clarinet, AND I'm on the varsity cheerleading and dance teams. Piss off."
