They say not to count your chickens before they hatch. ‘Cause by doing so, you raise the chances for an instant loss of karma, dignity, and self-confidence, like, triple.
If you've ever been near the finish line raising your arms high in the sky, only to feel a cold wave of wind passing through while you enjoy the moment of not-earned victory, you need no further explanation. And if you are one of the lucky ones who hasn’t had their fair share of premature celebration-turned nightmare, please stay that way and keep on scrolling to see what not to do to become one of many.
Thanks to the subreddit r/Prematurecelebration, we now have the full-on archive of cringey glory that is a product of people celebrating just a microscopic little bit too early. So you'd better get ready to crack up big time.

Random Selection
To find out more about the community behind the r/Prematurecelebration subreddit, Bored Panda reached out to one of its moderators, u/N8theGr8, who was happy to share some insights.
The mod told us that the subreddit was created by u/potato88, who’s now a suspended user, back in 2013. Some time ago, though, the subreddit had no moderators, so the admins gave it to the current mod team, u/N8theGr8 said.
But since the subreddit revolves around a “kind of niche topic,” it’s not as active as it could be. “But we have half a million subscribers and it stays relatively active,” they added. Right now, the subreddit has 525k members in total and their community is still growing.

Good Idea To Straight Up Tell Everyone That You're Scamming A Company
When asked about the whole concept of premature celebration that the subreddit as all about, the moderator explained that it “just means celebrating some kind of win or victory before you really should.”
“Like a guy who runs a race and then slows down right at the end to do a victory jump and throw his arms in the air, only to be passed by the 2nd-place guy who then wins the race. Or 'Dewey Defeats Truman' newspaper held up by President Truman.”

Influencer Brags About Her Easy Life In Bali On Twitter, Gets Deported Over It
She was selling a book that essentially was a referral service for people who would help circumvent COVID rules and she also broke the rules of her tourist visa by working in Bail (by selling said book)
And she complained afterwards that it was because of her gender/race. *chefkiss.jpg*
She played all the minority cards- female, black, lesbian. There was a bored panda article
Load More Replies...If only because they call themselves that. It's right down there with describing oneself as "a hero" or "kind" or "a very stable genius".
Load More Replies...Sure, her posts made me want to visit Bali... On vacation... For a pre-determined length of time... Properly documented... And find a way to HELP the local population in some way. Now THAT is the proper way to elevate ones self: Doing for others. Not taking advantage of others for personal gain.
She claimed afterwards that she was deported because she's gay. Indonesia is a pretty conservative country but that's not why. Bragging on social media about violating any nation's laws is just asking for it.
She got deported because people were afraid of spreading her egotistical stupidity!
Load More Replies...The full article can be found here: https://www.boredpanda.com/american-influencer-deported-from-bali-after-tweets/
Why would you deport someone over bragging about how great they feel living there? It's not like they were bragging about how they broke the law or anything.
She was promoting her e-book which included tips on how to get around safety protocols for a move to Bali during the pandemic. She also wrote about overstaying her tourism visa and not paying appropriate taxes.
Load More Replies...Ffs get your s**t right. Be clear about what she brags about which is why the deportation happened
Why did they deport her? Is it because of the Queer friendly part since Bali is predominantly religious?
Nope. Because she basically telling people to come to Bali during coronavirus pandemic (she promoted that she knows how to go to Indonesia during pandemic while the border supposed to be closed). Also she is violating law by staying with tourists visa while making money without paying tax to Indonesian government. She said she doesn't have to pay tax because she makes USD and not IDR.
Load More Replies...But this doesn't show that she was/is being deported. Weird they wouldn't include it.
The main reason was telling people about an easy way to enter Bali which was illegal

Was so happy about this!! Good luck moving back to LA paying $2500 for a studio!! Stupid bitch!!
She exploits the loophole in indonesia's immigration law during the pandemic to stay for much longer than her visa, and sells ebook telling people how to do it. Well surprise, she encourages people to break the laws, then got deported. Funny thing was she said she was deported bcos she was a black lesbian. Guess what, indonesian govt doesn't give a s**t for your political correctness.
If you ever feel the need to brag about how great your life is, be extremely humble in the process. If you are gaming the system, then be silent.

Celebrating Too Early
Yeah, our Prime Minister said that we are "Best in covid" back in summer, and now we are "Best in covid" but from the other side :(
Does This Count?
Very bad man. He was hanged for murdering three tourists (believed to have killed six in total) he was also a drug trafficker and thief. Googled him so you don’t have to.

Self Explanatory
Well, at least they can now rememeber the original date they were supposed to marry.
Note: this post originally had 60 images. It’s been shortened to the top 30 images based on user votes.
The redditor u/N8theGr8 continued: “When you're so close to the end that victory looks assured is when a lot of people let their guard down, and don't have the situational awareness to realize that someone else is trying to win too. It's fine to celebrate early, but make sure you're in a safe position to do so.”
I really wish there had been some explanation on the sports ones. Not all of us are in the USA and following US sports competitions.
I just saw rollerblading and Toronto Blue Jays. I don’t know where rollerblading is popular, but I would be surprised to learn that Toronto is in the USA🤷
Load More Replies...Sooo many people breaking the law and telling the world how "smart" they are. Sigh......
Something cringeworthy makes you cringe. "Cringey" is not a word. Honestly.
QAnon should be added to this. The weeping "what just happened?" looks on the faces of these slobbering idiots the moment Biden got sworn in was priceless.
I'm not into sports at all but I got the sports ones and still find them funny. Most of these are self explanatory, for example its obvious "the fourth" meant the game was still going. I don't need to follow American football to figure that out. As for the gaming ones, lots of people provided context to them. Just because you don't like sports and games doesn't mean the compilation was bad.
