guerrilla wedding

A spontaneous wedding held in a public location without securing a permit. For more free-wheeling types that are loath to go through red tape just to say "I do".
Where is our wedding you ask? Well, it's a guerrilla wedding so we can't tell you right now.

Guerrilla Tennis

An activity in which a tennis racket is used to lob light bulbs, Christmas ornaments or other small, glass objects across parking lots, roof tops, empty streets and other public places.

Usually only played after midnight, a game consists of multiple rounds in multiple locales and can stretch across an entire city. Players can wear any tennis attire they wish, usually headbands, and need to smoke Black & Mild cigarillos while participating for maximum trashiness. Players also have been traditionally sober, which makes it that much more pathetic.

Also popularly known as "Lightbulbs to Lightbulbs."
Player 1: Man, last night was the best round of Guerrilla Tennis ever. We went until 7 in the morning!
Player 2: Who won?
Player 1: Everybody!

guerrilla exhibitionism

the act of two or more people exposing themselves from different points.
In a large city, somebody runs down the street, pulls down their pants near a police officer, and yells "guerrilla exhibitionism". Then, when the cop is chasing him, somebody jumps out of a bush and does the same. A 3rd person could be on top of a roof, and a 4th driving by.

Guerrilla Camping

The act of sleeping where one is not allowed.
Guerrilla Camping entails but is not limited to: parking at a derelict church with "Gone Camping. God Bless!" scrawled on paper and attached to the wipers, breaking into an abandoned summer camp, taking funny pills, looting all the cabins, finding a stash of cowboy hats, speaking like you're from Deadwood, playing harmonica in a state of inebriation, having the retrospective good fortune of not getting your hands on a canoe, looking for fuel for your torch, determining that Psalms is your least favorite book, and hoping you can remember which direction that church was in the morning.

guerrilla

An irregular fighter in a (would-be or actual) popular insurgent army. It comes from a Spanish word meaning "little war" (guerra=war, guerilla=little war). Guerrillas hide in inaccessible areas and split up into small units instead of trying to confront their enemies head-on. They usually rely on support from the local population to keep them hidden and to supply them with food and other provisions. Their base of operation is an area such as a forest, mountainous terrain or tunnels underground, although there is also a term "urban guerrilla" referring to someone who tries to use guerrilla tactics in a city environment.

Guerrillas establish bases in what are called foca (singular foco) or base areas, with the theory being that these areas will gradually expand until the guerrillas control the entire countryside and the enemy is isolated in the cities. This is supposed to culminate in an eventual direct war, as happened in China. But today, guerrilla tactics are more often used to harass and impose costs on powerful armies so that they are unable to control a territory and are eventually forced to leave.

Guerrillas are archetypically left-wing, usually adhering to some version of Maoism, Guevarism or some other version of statist communism. It was from such currents that the idea of guerrilla war emerged. However, the term can also be applied to indigenous movements (e.g. the OPM), fundamentalists (e.g. the Afghan mujahideen) and even some right-wing populist groups backed by the US (such as Renamo in Mozambique). Although the emphasis on support from the impoverished masses gives guerrilla strategy a left-wing bent, it is a strategic approach and not a political tendency, so in theory a guerrilla can have any political perspective compatible with attempting to win popular support.
Battles between guerrillas and government forces in the breakaway province left hundreds dead.

Iraqi insurgents have insufficient resources to confront American troops head-on, so they have resorted to hit-and-run guerrilla tactics.
