Do you know Jack? That Philomath. He was the only one who went to Mrs. Foster's math and science classes this summer.

Get the Philomath mug.
A small town in Oregon where people go to rope cattle, cut down trees, and shoot spotted owls. It is also inaccurately defined as the "love of learning".

Philomath is the bitch step-sister of Corvallis, an infinitely cooler town, yet only two or three miles away. Refer to the definition of Corvallis.

Philomath is also not a safe place for queers. It's really only a nice place for meth fiends and dipshit rednecks.
Philomath blows for a lot of reasons. The biggest reason is that Paul's Place is no longer there. If you know what's good for you, you'll drive right through without stopping on your way to Newport.
