Where would you like him to poke you dave?
if someone pokes me in the ribs or the abdomen the fist and elbows start fly almost instinctively, it more of a reaction that an angry retaliation.
If you poke someone (even someone you know ) in the ribs whatever happens to you, you have coming to you.
dave, you’re a pansy. tall dude isn’t going to read this.
you should have gotten all buck-wild and poked him back, nah mean?!
i hate being poked!
Poke for a smoke?
