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.

Others agreed that Saturdays weren't meant for the dating scene.

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.

The protests, organized by a pro-democracy movement, were a response to what they describe as a "hostile takeover" and an attack on American rights and freedoms.

Musk Slammed For Criticizing 'Suicidal Empathy' Of SCOTUS Justices Who Ruled In Favor Of Due Process

Once again borrowing from the language of the toxic, insecure, red pill/blue pill, alpha male, incel subcultures that gave rise to public figures like Andrew Tate and Nick Fuentes, Elon Musk attacked the women of the United States Supreme Court for following the rule of law and the United States Constitution instead of showing fealty to Republican President Donald Trump.

In a 4-5 dissent, only the women of SCOTUS decided the core of our justice system—due process—can stop the kinds of mistakes Trump's Department of Homeland Security is making routinely, like ICE abducting and deporting innocent people with visa or green cards to a hellish prison in El Salvador.
