T.G.I.F. is an initialism for the phrase "Thank Goodness It's Friday" (or "Thank God 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] It was first popularized by the restaurant T.G.I. Friday's which was founded in 1965.[citation needed] However, it became mainstream by the late 1970s,[citation needed] mainly due to 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]
