TikToker Explains Why You Should Never Have First Dates On Saturdays In Hilarious Rhyming Rant

TikToker @welcometothepeasant party sounded off in a Dr. Seuss-style rant about why having a date on a Saturday as opposed to a weekday is a terrible idea.

Anyone who's participated in the dating scene knows that they have to invest something of themselves in order to seek out new relationships: money, feelings and vulnerability, and, of course, time.

It can be so hard to commit to setting a date for going out, not just because it means putting yourself out there, but seriously, what a waste of time if they don't show up or the date turns out to be a flop!


That's why TikToker @welcometothepeasantparty argues that when you first start dating someone, you should never commit to going on a date with them on a Saturday.

To drive her point home, she hilariously presented a rhyming PowerPoint presentation while yelling the message.

The main point of the video is that Saturday is the core of the weekend, which is many people's only free time throughout the week, so they should reserve that time either for themselves or for the people in their lives that they know will not let them down, so their weekend resting period is not ruined with bad dates or being ghosted.

New dates can happen during the already hectic week instead. If they turn out to be a great date, that only serves to make the hectic week better!

Some were thoroughly entertained by the rhyming presentation.

Our time is limited and precious, so it's important to fill it with as many of the things and people who make us happy and who make us feel fulfilled.

While participating in the dating scene can certainly be a part of that, this TikToker might be onto something in suggesting that there are certain times that we should reserve for...not dating.

When a new person is coming into our lives as a potential friend or partner, there's no telling if the situation will work out or if their commitment to us will match our commitment to them.

At least while we're figuring that out, maybe it really would be better to reserve a special time each week just for us and the people we already know love us—and for many of us, that means the weekend hours.

Someone Flew A 'Trump Country' Banner Over Bernie And AOC's Packed Rally—And AOC Clapped Back Hard

Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had the perfect response after one of President Donald Trump's supporters flew a banner reading "Folsom Is Trump Country" over a Northern California rally she held with her colleague, Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders.

She brushed off a warning that they were entering “Trump country” as the crowd swelled in deep-red Folsom, a Republican stronghold nestled in Representative Kevin Kiley’s district. Just to drive the point home, a small plane buzzed above the rally, trailing a banner in bold red letters: “Folsom Is Trump Country.”

MAGA Senator Gets An Earful From Angry Constituents During Iowa Town Hall—And It's Pure Fire

Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley was criticized by his "pissed" constituents during a town hall in Fort Madison this week who demanded why he hasn’t taken stronger action to hold President Donald Trump and his administration accountable as tensions escalate with the Supreme Court.

Those in attendance were galvanized by the Trump administration’s refusal to comply with a unanimous Supreme Court order instructing the White House to “facilitate” the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Garcia was mistakenly deported to a prison in El Salvador known for its reputation for torture.
