TGIF
Thank God it’s Friday US, 1941 Notable variations: the restaurant chain “T.G.I. Friday’s”, established in New York in 1965, now worldwide; and the controversial UK television programme TFI Friday, 1996–2000.- Newcomers to Patrick Air Force Base in Florida, where missiles are tested, are usually mystified by seeing the initials TGIF on bulletin boards and notices of various kinds. They are strictly non-regulation. They stand for “Thank God It’s Friday” – meaning pay-day and week-end relaxation for some in the form of beach parties, club dances, and so on. — New York Times, p.
