Poke? The hell's a "poke", exactly? (On Facebook, I mean.)

[DMonkey]

I forgot it was still on there. When facebook started, it was just a quaint little game people played. I poke, you poke, we see each other later and say something like ,"Hey, you better watch where you're pokin' lady. You might hit a sensitive spot". And then you laugh, walk to class together, go on a date, get married, have 2.5 kids and live happily until one of you die.

Had to quote this to this, as it was just gold.

And I would imagine finding a woman on facebook, would be a lot like finding one in one of those cages at some clubs. Their entire personality is nothing but narcissism and daddy issues.

On topic, dunno about a poke. Sounds annoying.

You tell me. She's quite possibly psychotic (in the DSM-IV mental health professional sense of the term), won't leave me alone even when I show absolutely no romantic interest, and strikes me as exactly the sort of person who would leave the disembodied head of a goat in my bed as some kind of love gesture.

So I ask again. Is it safe?

While I doubt she'd leave the head of a goat in my bed, my ex sounds quite similar. Except I'm pretty sure she's just been trying to play me again as of late.

Anyways, a poke is basically a "hey, it's your turn to start the conversation" tool. Readily countered by either ignoring them or utilizing the block feature, depending on how much you (dis)like the person.

Ten bucks says she tries to call me in the next couple days. Yay caller ID!

Poke her mon.

While I have no doubt that with the slight application of charm and a modest dose of empty promises I could fuck her clean into next week, the question I have to ask myself is "is it worth it?"

Oh damn man, I know EXACTLY where you are coming from. Had it happen to me TWICE. First one found another interest, and the second wouldn't stop hounding me till I left the STATE (for other reasons, but that was an added benefit). My brother still runs into that one from time to time, and I gave him specific instructions to tell her I am still living down south.

Dude, I'm sorry. Buckle up. Those rides tend to turn into Willy Wonka's boat tour.

I think it's usually between people who want to sleep with each other. At the highlight of being poked before my girlfriend I was being poked by 4 different women, now it's only my girlfriend

Annoyingly I only slept with 1 of those girls and I think had a chance with them all but I shouldn't be greedy

Only in my experience though

"Ah poke you. Ah pokeyouahpokeyouahpokeyou"

I hate you Hulu. Allow people from other countries to watch your clips, shows, and movies! Ahm dyin' 'ere!

Change your facebook language to pirate, it makes it much more enteresting.

You can do that???

For about a month I had it as upside-down English but that got annoying after a while. But pirate? That's a whole new ballgame!

"Hey, listen!"
