10 best tweets during 'First Dates Ireland'
Last night saw the second episode of First Dates and, well, the cringiness and sweetness continued.
The big stand-out moments were, of course, Kias and his uh... well, his everything. Seriously, Ciara is a fabulous human and how she keeps either getting stood up or paired with, uh, well. You were there. You saw the state of him.
Of course, Twitter's reaction was crucial and on point, with more than a few sharp observations and witticisms.

Perfect date & then tells him he smells like her grandad?!Actually fell off couch laughing 😄 Can't get enough of this show #FirstDatesIRL

In fairness, telling someone they smell like their granddad is something that sounds mad when you say it out loud, but makes perfect sense in your head.

Can we get cousins on next week just to up the awkwardness? #FirstDatesIRL
— Fiona Freaney (@freaney1) April 28, 2016
In fairness, we're pushing the higher levels on the awkwardness factor already. Plus, this is Ireland. It is ENTIRELY possible that this can happen.

Already stressing about how these two are going to make their long-distance relationship work. #FirstDatesIRL

We checked. They couldn't make the long distance thing work, unfortunately. And now we're sad.

Given that they have to pay for it all I’m surprised we haven’t seen someone sneak a naggin in yet. #FirstDatesIRL

The Canadian bartender does seem like the sort who'd hook you up with an empty glass and some ice without any questions.
