preactive

Coined in the world of public relations, preactive refers to a statement issued that appears to react to something you know will be said by someone else, often a competitor. Can be used to take the sting out of a rival's expected announcement or 'coup'. Similar to pretaliate, but without the nastiness.

Knowing that regular customer Wyle E. Coyote was likely to slam himself into the face of a cliff, ACME issued a preactive statement at the same time they shipped his shoulder-mounted rocket-propelled grappling hook, warning people against the dangers of mis-using hi-tech products and tools.

preductive

What you are before you are productive. This phase usually includes procrastination activities such as watching TV on the internet or typing in 'facebook.com' into your address bar when you are already on Facebook.

Oh man, I have to be preductive for at least 4 hours before I write my paper. Maybe I'll watch all of 30 Rock again.
