Yes, but when flying a military aircraft we are required to monitor guard. So when you talk or try to listen on another frequency, "LET'S GO BRANDON!!!" comes over your headset/helmet while you are trying to hear tower tell you about the P-8, MH-53E, Seahawk, P-3, Airbus, etc.. in the traffic pattern. Yes, I can stop monitoring guard (against regulations), but then again, why not use guard for what it is intended?
<pet peeve>Not to mention the use of guard channels by "The Show" to coordinate with their base or occasionally make the "Weather at Orlando Intl today is clear and sunny, We'll be landing in Orlando in 15 minutes. Thank you for flying __" call to the passengers in the back over guard. Yes, I have heard that. Flying a rescue aircraft, I have used guard for real life saving efforts. So yes, it kind of irritates me when I hear guard used as the air equivalent of "Breaker breaker 19".</pet peeve>
