T.G.I.F. is an initialism for the phrase "Thank God It's Friday" (or "Thank Goodness It's Friday"), celebrating the last day of the work/school week before the weekend.[1][2] Its origin dates to the 1960s.[citation needed]
[edit] In Popular Culture
It was popularized by the restaurant T.G.I. Friday's which was founded in 1965.[3] The term became mainstream by the late 1970s following the release of the 1978 movie of the same name.
It is also an acronym for Toes Go In First, which is the punch-line of various blonde jokes.[citation needed]
