How do you feel about poking on Facebook? Do you poke? Do you like being poked by others?

I don't enjoy being poked there. None of my closest friends do it. They know better. LoL. But people who are friends of friends poke me incessantly. If I poke them back just to be done with it, they'll just poke me again a few minutes later ! I usually let my pokes accumulate and once a month I'll poke everybody back because I don't like to encourage poking.

I'd never unfriend or block anyone over something so small, but it annoys the butter out of me a lot of the time.

I know, may this be my biggest problem in life. You're right. I just needed to vent about poking. I don't understand the purpose of it. If I'm there people know what I'm up to, and if I'm not, I wouldn't see the pokes anyway. Jeez.

What does it means when people poke you on Facebook? I've been poked by random strangers on MySpace when I had MySpace music account. I was widely known then.

I used to think it meant, "You've been quiet. What's Up"? But I get poked even when I'm around and posting so there goes that theory.
