Trying to Understand what the #Poke is for (on @Facebook ) | @DailyDot @appuals @BuzzFeedNews @FollowChainorg @Bustle
I discuss the 'de-evolution' of the #FacebookPoke in a paying forum you can access through 'the emboldened link(s)' below; but first I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The word “Poke” (if not 'short for #Pokeweed (the Tobacco-Plant, from words that mean Smoke, Stain)' or 'the Small Sack #PigInaPoke (built on words that mean to Swell, a Bull, Pocket)) is built on ancient words that Imitate 'Stabbing with a Knife' (compare "to Knock, Rap").
