premature elocution 

Refers to a keyboarding-slip whereby you inadvertently "catch" da "Enter" key wif da right side of your thick clumsy finger when hitting da "quote/apostrophe" key while composing an instant-message to someone, causing said incomplete/unedited message to get sent to him before you were ready.
I love these new rubbery finger-cots dat reduce impact-fatigue/soreness of my fingertips while keyboarding and give me better "traction" on the keys, but da boots' sticky spongy surfaces cause me to perform a lot more premature elocutions than if I was just typing wif my bare leathery-dry fingers.

Premature eloculation

Premature eloculation is the what happens when you get in your car, and you reach over to unlock the door for someone, and they try the handle too soon so you have to unlock it again, and they try it too soon again so you have to unlock it yet again. Their repeated attempts to open the the door too soon is known as premature eloculation.
Karen: Would you please give it a second before trying to open the door? That's premature eloculation!
