I was contemplating killing off this mediocre 90s band, but then I realized that such drastic measures are no longer necessary. Though they were once hailed as the best new band in the universe, I am confident that they have been drained of their evil power, and therefore can't hurt us anymore. But I did get to thinking about the great collective nouns we have for critters: a murder of crows, a leap of leopards, a prickle of hedgehogs, a scurry of squirrels, etc. I decided to redirect that unspent energy of mine, and use it to create some collective nouns for homo sapiens. Here are the results:
a slack of hippies
a jerk of frat boys
a sulk of emo kids
a dread of deadheads
a clash of punks
a pale of World of Warcrafters
an ennui of hipsters
a stench of street kids (this one is reserved for the kids that look like they smell bad, but probably live in Lake Oswego)
Some of my chums pitched in on these:
a caravan of soccer moms (Pueblo Steve)
a solemn of goths (Dr. Bagelman)
a google of computer geeks (AlliTron)
Anybody got a suggestion for a good collective noun for Barflies?
Bathroom Graffiti
a round of barflies
a bag of douches
a sea of horses
a grope of knights
a tub of unwashed masses
a number of mathletes
Jar of Barfly's
A twitch of meth addicts
A hand of poker players
A skulk of muggers
A sparkle of drag queens
A line, puff or swallow of dealers depending on what it is they are dealing
A cleavage of prostitutes
Sheesh, shows you the company I keep...
