Reverse-procrastinate

Definition

The act of repeatedly delaying something enjoyable under the misguided belief that postponing pleasure will somehow enhance future happiness. It's procrastination's overachieving cousin who ruins ice cream with freezer burn and lets concert tickets expire. Essentially self-sabotage disguised as delayed gratification.

Example Usage

"I kept reverse-procrastinating watching that show everyone recommended, and now it's been removed from the streaming service."
