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.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
