Agile Project Management is Like Teenage Sex

I just stumbled upon a really funny, tongue-in-cheek comparison between Agile Adoption and Teenage Sex of all things. It made me laugh so I thought I’d share it!

I’ve *think* the original version of this joke/comparison came from the but I can’t be sure.

Enjoy!

Agile is like Teen Sex because:

  • Everyone wants to do it
  • Many say they’re doing it
  • You always exaggerate how much of it you’re doing
  • Most people aren’t actually doing it (despite their best efforts)
  • Everybody else seems to be doing more than you
  • You get a kick out of telling your friends how they can do it better
  • You spend a lot of time thinking about it
  • Your first time never quite goes to plan
  • You can’t wait until you experience the real deal
  • Very few of you/your friends are doing it correctly
  • You do everything you can to please your Product Owner
  • It takes you a while before you find your velocity
  • You always make sure to hold a retrospective afterwards
  • Everyone says they’ll ‘do it better next time’
  • Your start getting a bad reputation when you spend too much time ‘Doing it’  (See: Doing Agile is a Sign of Incompetence)
