Ha!

Man when you hear someone reply you're on guard you just have to believe the guard police come unglued.

I'm waiting for the day someone is having an emergency and some panty waste goes "you're on guard!"

True story:

Last year on Christmas Eve, we're flying from ATL to CLE late at night. It's quiet on the frequency... not a lot of traffic. Just a real, calm, quiet night and we're sitting there level at cruise altitude. On the guard frequency, we hear a very faint, quick "Ho, Ho, Ho." Without missing a beat, someone else chimes in and says, "Santa, you're on guard!"

Its happened. True story. A few years ago over New Mexico. Some guy was gonna "dead stick" his experimental in the desert and was too low for ATC reception. He asked anyone who could hear him on guard to relay to ATC his LAT/LON. Some knucklehead chimes in "you're on guard." His reply was something "no sh!t, please relay my position."

I wonder if the guard police are the same "don't post our crew hotel" bandits?

One merger is challenging enough, but two at once? Has that ever happened before?
