Premature Ventricular Contraction

when your heart skips a beat.

may be perceived as a "skipped beat" or felt as palpitations in the chest. In a normal heartbeat, the ventricles contract after the atria have helped to fill them by contracting; in this way the ventricles can pump a maximized amount of blood both to the lungs and to the rest of the body . In a PVC, the ventricles contract first, which means that circulation is inefficient. However, single beat PVC arrhythmias do not usually pose a danger and can be asymptomatic in healthy individuals.1

Premature Auto Flushing

The flushing of an automatic toilet bowl prior to taking a shit.

This is known to happen in corporate offices with automatic flushers and after a great deal of effort has been expended to carefully lay down the paper on the seat...right before you sit down, the toilet flushes taking all the paper with it...forcing you to start again...
Andrew had to take a massive crap and took great care in applying the paper to cover all parts of the dirty seat...as he turned to drop to his knees, a premature auto flushing kicked in...requiring him to hold back with all his might as he re-applied paper....

premature elect-elation

Celebrating your candidate's victory before the fat lady sings, the dust settles and the final count is in. A serious medical problem which may result in loss of friends, credibility or face.
If you or a loved one suffers from "premature elect-elation," there IS help. Celebrating before the final count is in, is a serious problem and may result in loss of friends, credibility or face...and if you really think it's over and there are no more surprises to see...you haven't been paying attention for the past year.

premature strike-ulation

When you are bowling and you THINK you bowled a strike, so you start celebrating by doing your little dance, but then you turn around to notice you still have pins standing.
Man, jon totally looked like an IDIOT when he thought he got that strike. He did a little breakdace move, while everyone was laughing and pointing at the lanes, he finally turuned around and realized it wasnt a strike. CLASSIC case of premature strike-ulation

Loss of data or files when you eject your USB key without properly stopping the device.
Oh no! Half of my presentation is missing because I just pulled out without stopping my USB key. This happens to me all the time. I must have a problem with premature ejection dysfunction.
