The response to this outrageously petty rejection wins comeback of the week

We’ve been given lots of reasons why first dates didn’t turn into second dates – well, not too many – but none quite so outrageously petty as this.

It was a rejection message shared by someone called Jacques – @flamencolambada over on Twitter – which went wildly viral because, well, look.

The jaw-dropping screenshot prompted no end of outraged replies, as you might imagine.

This is honestly the worst. I cannot believe people like this exist. I am actually astounded.

“Kinda gave me the ick” is a weirder phrase than “putting my thinking cap on”.

“Hey our date was cool but you said one thing that’s totally normal, so I don’t think I’m gonna be seeing you again. Oh hey by the way can you help me find a dj within the same rejection message. I don’t realize I look callous but clearly don’t care as long as I find this DJ.”

But the very best response came from someone who suggested this.

Please say you replied with “I’ll have to put my thinking cap on”

And fortunately for everyone involved, Jacques took them up on the suggestion.
