A tool on facebook used to get other's attention. Like the facebook feed's endless scroll, the function depends to some extent on dopamine. But even more, it carries sexual connotations as a phallic gesture, prompting users to use it as a flirtation device (even if the two pokers aren't exactly on the same page). For this reason there is long standing debate as to whether the function is distinctly sexual. One thing's for sure though, it gets people excited, and puts some (perhaps lonely people) in the mood for procreation; its simplicity lends it to become a fertile ground for projecting one's desires.
"Hey John, I think Lisa loves me."
"Why's that?"
"She gave me a facebook poke after the party the other night, and we've been poking each other constantly since"
"You don't think she's just bored and happy to see a friend?"
"Doesn't that mean she's dtf?"
"Is that what love means to you?"
"Why's that?"

Such information is almost always upsetting because regardless of the subject, you probably take exception that you were not personally made aware of what you found.

-'Yah, right. (pause) Where did you here that?'
