What a way to start off my Monday. As is my habit, I check Facebook in the morning for snippets of news and to see what everyone else is doing for the day. I’m curious, I admit it. Anyway, I look over to see that I have been “poked” by several friends. And that got me to thinking…
What is the purpose of the Facebook “poke”?
Seriously??
Really, what is the point of it? It has no purpose, other than to let someone else know that you thought highly enough of them to virtually stick your finger out and plunge it against their virtual chest. If someone were to actually do that to me in reality, I would be forced to take their finger and break it.
Which leads to another question: why isn’t there a “break finger” option to “poking” on Facebook?? 😉

Oh is that the purpose? I guess I was reading “poke” a little differently 😉

I was poking someplace other than your chest. Heh!

I wonder why FB won’t let us double poke, or triple poke, or power poke, or whatever???

You know, I took a gamble with this post.
And I lost… 😛

one of our friends is always complaining about her husband’s early morning habits….
my recollection of the conversation:
“blah, blah blah….. blah-blah and then all the bastard wants to do is wake me up way too early and poke at me….. blahhhh blaahhh blahh…:
snicker, snicker…. : ()

Ever since I started taking “Extends” ™ I have been poking all my facebook friends, as often as possible. Thank you “Extends” ™ !!

If the friend poking you on FB is male, and from Jamaica, does that make him a Pokemon???
(go ahead and groan, you know you want to…) 😉
