+Pajaholic Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Thanks for the ding. Personally, I love some of the more unusual collective nouns, particularly those that follow stereotypes such as a "Lie" of politicians, a "Squabble" of seagulls and a "Shower" of meteorologists. So, to continue the theme, for the ding give a collective noun that applies to whales and dolphins? Quote Link to comment
