To be unnessicerily slow with hidden love or crushing, almost like having a crush but putting off talking to them for an unnessicerily long time because you are afraid they are too good or not interested. Most poaters think highly of themselves, but are not sure if there crush knows if they exist, or gives a care. Poating is considered cowardly by boys, yet lots of them do it. Girls do too, but it is less obvious, and less frowned upon. e.g. "I know a lot of girls that poat in love," or "stop poating around and ask her out, fool!" Poating is a habit.
It can also mean chasing local boats on lakes that you do not know (lets say, if you are out of state) and seeing where all the good fishing spots are. Most poaters are seen as annoying and sometimes cheaters.

Get the POATEW mug.A town of approx. 51466 (2000 census) located in south eastern Idaho. Home to Idaho State University (founded 1901).
Originally the Fort Hall trading post, which became the railroad community of Pocatello. It hosts several historic builds and hotels, which were used as housing for women of "questionable" character. Often times these women entertained the conductors of the railroad.
Pocatello is dominated by the LDS faith and most things are closed on Sundays. Each year they have a parade called "Pioneer Days" to celebrate their crossing to Salt Lake- they block most of the roads. On the same token Poctello houses six coffee shops.
A lot of people do meth in some form or another in Pocatello. It has become a big problem.
There is nothing to do besides go to the roller skating place, the drive-in (only in the summer) and drink large amounts of alcohol.
People were excited when a movie theater was built with 10 theaters and then Lowes built a store next door and the community exploded in happiness. But it was almost orgasmic when Bed, Bath and Beyond popped in and the word on the street is "Olive Garden..."
Pocatello can be a great place if you don't expect too much.

Get the Ploat mug.A thriving mormon community in southeast Idaho, home to Idaho State University, a variety of crazy meth addicts, rich mormons, lots of Indians, and hip young college kids. Despite how it may look from the outside, Pocatello houses a growing hipster counter culture. From the ones who hang out at local coffee shops and cruise Pocatello's countless thrift stores (notably the Youth Ranch and the DI), to the ones who hop off at the train station and camp in the area during the summer, Pocatello's got all the witty artistic classiness you need. Most of these individuals are working on some sort of music or art degree at ISU while paying cheap rent for a trashy apartment and working a job that sounds cool but actually sucks. Hipsters like living in Pocatello because of the ironic clash that their growing presence has against the prominent LDS community. Pocatello has six coffee places, mostly locally owned, which is pretty cool. The only thing that sucks about them is that the only reason they're still open is because the hipster kids of Pocatello like to hang out in cool places no one has heard of. If you're deemed "cool" enough, you will be welcomed to the nightly college parties that occur over the summer, or perhaps asked on a date to an artsy community event. All the coolest people like to go to the small shows around town--from local acoustic music to even cooler sounding new music from Portland, most of which you wouldn't have heard of.
1.
Me: So you're from Pocatello. Do you go to ISU?
Hipster girl: Yes, I'm a photojournalism major. I used to be an Arts major but I changed my mind. I shoot photos for my friend's undiscovered acting agency in Boise.
Me: Wow that's super cool that you choose cool irregular paths of life. It really illuminates the ironic contrast of what kids our age normally do after high school.

Boss: So are you a member?
Me: A member? ...of what?
Boss: (scoff) The Church!?!

Me: So you're a member, right?
Hot Mormon Girl: Yeah of course! You?
Me: Um, not really...the missionaries invited me though.
Hot Mormon Girl: It was nice meeting you.

Get the Pocatello mug.A combination of the word protein and oats, given to the name of the mixture of the two. Proats are made by mixing protein powder with a bowl of oatmeal and usually adding fruit, nuts or honey etc...
This mixture carries no additional benefits over the two ingredients and only offers the promise of instagram likes and snapchat views. Proats are usually consumed by average gym goers just looking for Likes
