A Lament or On SuperPoke



Even more reprehensible than facebook itself are some of the facebook applications (in fact, I've never found one that I liked). Possibly the most attrocious that I've seen thus far (rivaled by the one in which you give people eggs and the eggs hatch and grown into random things like alligators or lollipops) is SuperPoke. While SuperPoke might be able to be used in a non-nauseating fashion, in one person's profile in particular, it isn't. He primarily SuperPokes and is SuperPoked by his girlfriend. This includes kissing, blowing kisses, hugging and cuddling and kissing some more. I just want to scream at him, "You aren't really kissing her!" That can't possibly be fulfilling in any way. It is public PDA without enjoying any of the benefits while still making the person next to you (next to you in the virtual sense, in this case) supremely uncomfor-ta-ble.
