So what's the point of 'poking' on FB?

I honestly love FB for allowing me to keep in touch with so many people/ share photos!

However sometimes it annoys the cr@p out of meChat Icon What the heck is the point of 'poking' Some girl I barely knew sent a friend request which I ignored since I tend to have only close(r) friends....now she is poking....

So FB is just jr high all over again?

Yes. There really is no point. I guess to get your attention? Someone poked me once so I poked back and they wouldn't stop. Finally I had to message them and say "FINE! You win, leave me alone!" Chat Icon

My cousins 'poke' me sometimes. I poke them back. I kind of use it as a "Hey I know you exist.. I just don't have anything to say to you at the moment!" tool.Chat Icon

I just found that funny. Once my sister went into my fb and started pocking everyone.... Since then, I know the pocking thing is not serious Chat Icon
