A sport with a dog and person competing as a team, for time, on an obstacle-type course. There are jumps, tunnels, teetertotters, weave poles, dogwalk, Aframe, broadjump, other spread jumps and other possible obstacles that the dog must go over, through, across, weave between in a preordained and specific manner and order. Fastest time with the fewest faults for mistakes, wins. Based on horseshow jumping. Only dog takes the obstacles. Person must handle, run with dog, off leash without toys or treats, or touching dog or obstacles. Runs that count (qualify for some title) are called Q's. Also there are Double Q's and Super Q's, and dirty Q's. Agility tends to produce its own language.

Agile is a generalized term for a group of anti-social behaviors used by office workers to avoid doing any work while simultaneously giving the appearance of being insanely busy. Agile methods include visual distraction, subterfuge, camouflage, psycho-babble, buzzwords, deception, disinformation, and ritual humiliation. It has nothing to do with the art and practice of software engineering.
That crap was built using Agile.
Worker A: Couldn't we be a bit more Agile?
Worker B: How?
Worker A: Let's order pizza at the Kanban.

He figured out how to double the battery life but since the agile practice strictly forbids thinking outside the current task, his design wasn't acknowledged. Due to insubordination he will not be receiving a bonus this year.
