to SAG (v):

Normally, the verb 'sag' is defined as follows:

1. to sink or bend downward by weight or pressure, especially in the middle: The roof sags.

2. to hang down unevenly; droop: Her skirt was sagging.

3. to droop; hang loosely: His shoulders sagged.

4. to yield through weakness, lack of effort, or the like: Our spirits began to sag.

5. to decline, as in price: The stock market sagged today.

In ECC, SAG means something quite different.

The Student Activity Guide is a 103-page supplement to the Train & Multiply booklets. Trainers use it to guide their students through specific activities or to decide which lesson they need to focus on next.

However, it has gained a rather negative reputation amongst the editing staff. When you tell someone you've been SAGging, you are immediately met with a word of sympathy, along with a note of thanks that it's you and not them.

Today, I embark on my quest to make this beast a productive member of society.
