Poke Wars Kieran? I'm familiar with Star Wars...I'm not going to ask why you only do it to women ,,,enough said.


God I'm getting old - if I poke something I use a stick!

Myself and quite a few mates, mainly women have poke wars, (Remember my age 22) but it seems to be a thing you do to the opposite sex not to your own, there are written rules to poke wars.
That is a facebook thing though!

Back to thread -

I suppose there are two ways of looking at your proposal Kieran

1. Dumbing down - possibly giving an easy way out to contributing to a thread without committing any text or positive comments ( as you like).

2. Gentle encouragement - anyone new to the site or possibly nervous about contributing to discussions could get a "foot hold" with clicking the "Like" button. An almost anonymous contribution with no fear of retort.

I'd prefer to know why someone likes something and not just that they do....but if your idea encourages more traffic and increased involvement then why not.

On facebook you can Poke someone - what does this mean?

I've poked a few cows ( nearly dead or going to die) with a trocar and cannular in my time when they've got bloat.

The smell - click the I think I'm not liking this very much button - hard.

That reminds me of a story .

A Dutch pipe smoking vet was treating a cow with a similar condition. The vet, cow and barn were reduced to ashes as the cow was relieved from her predicament.....sort of a bovine flame thrower. LIKE!!!

Yeah but Button cant win a race. Sure he can do reasonably well, finishing in the points and go on to win if it rains and falls in his lap but he has never won a race by taking it by the scruff of its neck and overtaking anyone

Paul Williams said:

nah! Button is the man. Lewis can't finish a race at the moment!

T & S Plants said:

Well, Jenson is okay but Lewis is the more exciting driver.
