To celebrate, especially prematurely. See: 1994, Plano East vs John Tyler high school football highlights. Applies to any and all situations in which exuberant celebration is called for
1: The announcers broke out the Oreos a little too soon when they proclaimed their team the winner
2: DeSean Jackson was so busy breaking out the Oreos, he forgot to not throw the ball away before crossing the goal line.
3: “I just got elected president, break out the Oreos, baby!”
3 hours later...
“They’re recounting votes in Florida? Damn...broke out the Oreos too soon...”

Three days ago. Formed by the compound of yesterday + ere (1 day before) + ante (1 day before that). Theoretically, this process can be continued to formulate as many days back as you wish by simply adding more ere, ante, or another synonym, such as fore. Compare with:
Anteereyestermorn - three mornings ago
Anteereystereve - three evenings ago
Foreanteereyesterday - four days ago
Ereyesterday - two days ago
Overmorrow - two days from now
Overovermorrow - three days from now
Anteereyestermorn - three mornings ago
Anteereystereve - three evenings ago
Foreanteereyesterday - four days ago
Ereyesterday - two days ago
Overmorrow - two days from now
Overovermorrow - three days from now

A word which is defined as both itself and the opposite of itself.
E.G
“Because of their oversight, Russia was sanctioned by NATO”
Can mean that Russia was given approval (sanctioned) by NATO because of their vigilance (oversight)
Or that Russia was punished (sanctioned) by NATO because they egregiously overlooked something (oversight)

“I love you” in Old English, pronounced roughly as “ich looviyuh thay”. Can easily be passed off as gibberish if you want to confess to someone without them realizing, or can be extra sweet if you say it to someone who understands Old English.
