Australia, meet Des. Des, welcome to your 15 minutes you randy mother fucker.
Channel Seven’s First Dates program returned to Aussie screens last week, again whacking together two strangers on filmed first dates for the country to watch them, more often than not, fail abysmally at romance.
Tonight’s easiest fav contestant is 67-year-old butcher Des, who made one hell of an impact on not only his date, 59-year-old pocket-rocket Peta, but our nation as a whole.
Third time might be a charm for Des! 💒 👰 #FirstDatesAU pic.twitter.com/wew4njaCxm

Just the fact he was a butcher got people amped up, and then he want ahead and uttered the line “I’m used to handling me meat”.

Peta even went ahead and jumped straight to a question normally reserved for, actually, never. Never say this line: “are you still sexually active?”. Despite the objective horribleness of such a question (of course his answer was yes), people still frothed the pairing… mostly:

Peta: “so are you still sexually active?”

Finally, and seriously this is the moment Des took on God-like status in my eyes, he said the following to the camera on his thoughts of Pete:
If I knew where she farted I’d roll in it like a dog.
Once again:
“If I knew where she farted I’d roll in it like a dog.”
“Pull me finger dahl.”
Unforch that may have been the deal-breaker as Peta decided to not go on a second date with old mate Des. MY. FUCKING. HEART.

Peta 100% led Des on them, why ask him if he’s sexually active if you’re not going to see him again? #FirstDatesAU pic.twitter.com/iTSlvrl7dJ
