Hope this is the best place for this request…
I have to edit a monthly newsletter and I enjoy including aimless but ‘amusing’ little sections to keep the members chuckling :D.
I’d like suggestions for collective nouns… you know, a whinge of poms, a flight of pole-vaulters, a field of electricians etc.
Collect away and thanks in advance

Try that thread. Additionally, click the search icon in the upper right, enter the phrase “collective nouns” in the “keyword” box, select the “General Questions” forum, and set the time frame to “any date.” You’ll get a dozen or so threads on collective nouns.
