*poke*

Literally, to poke someone. Typically this is done over an IM client. Part of the old school emote family (yeah, before lolcats). Like anything enclosed in asterisks, *poke* is performing the action of poking the person you send it to. Largely replaced, in modern context, with "/e", "/me" or "/em" (emote) preceding the action.

Dude: Hey! Bro: Hey Dude, what's up? <Long period of silence> Bro: *Poke* Oi! Wake up! Dude: ouch! Sorry was doing other stuff!
