Collective nouns: A ________ of planners

Post of the Day | Humor

Planners

From Cyburbian Tom R: Did you know that a group of frogs is called an army or a colony? Me neither. Here is a link that give more names for groupings of critters than should be allowed. Anyway, what is a group of planners? An obfuscation? A stonewall? Others?

(Cyburbia Forums original post)


For the sole purpose of reinforcing several misguided stereotypes, we should call a group of us a "commune".:-p

A Plethora of Planners. Always did like alliteration.

I like alliteration, too.

A pulchritude of planners.

A passion of planners.

A platter of planners.

A pastiche of planners.

Or a recommendation of planners

Or a department of planners

a sh!tload of planners. ;-)

Around here it would definitely be a plague of planners.

My suggestion: A red pen of planners.

Oh, wait! That might demean some people. Never mind.;-)

an overlay district of planners?

groups

How about a Projection of Planners, or more appropriate a stagger of planners. We need to decide. (I wanted to say a committee but someone might like it.:()

A keg/case/six pack of planners :-D

A Lack of Planners

Im rather fond of a "gaggle" myself as we are about as zany a bunch as they come:-D

Massive list of collevtive nouns

From Wikipedia:

Quote:
Interest in constituent-object-specific collective nouns has always remained high, and the coining of candidate collective nouns has been a pastime (usually humorous) of many writers ever since, including for non-animal nouns, such as professions, e.g., a "sequitur of logicians".

How about ...

Bore of planners
Obstruction of planners
Blame of planners
Beer of planners
Report of planners

... and, more recently, with the CM credit fiasco ...
Rage of planners

groups

A blue shirt? ...scapegoat?

I'VE GOT IT! Drum roll please.....

A Power Point of Planners? eh?...double alliteration???

I was waiting for....

a circlejerk of planners....

"On the horizon appeared a circlejerk of planners, all in blue shirts and tan pants, with red markers held high; the townsfolk were frightened indeed."

:-D

As previous threads might suggest...

A Cult of Planners

How about a Murder of Planners?

a Bevy of Planners?

a Stuffed Sausage of Planners?

or, taking a page from my favorite insect, the cockroach, how about an Intrusion of Planners? Yes, I think I like that one best.

A paegant of planners

Isn't that what a lot of these public meetings are about? :-|

Hmm....

A denial of planners- to negative...ha ha ha
A Horde of planners
A discombobulate of planners- my favorite
A mystic of planners- close second
A addle of planners
A fuddle of planners
A abash of planners

Let's coin a new term: a Cyb of Planners.

A PUD of planners. (Sorry female planners...show me yours and I'll....never mind.)

This gets my vote.

A Scourge of Planners

An Asshat of Planners

At the risk of sounding boring and permitting this thread to Jump the Shark, I think that a group of planners is a team of planners.

We always hear about the team of planners from such and such .inc was on site... or the city planning team provided assistance to the commission.

I know it is not stylish, but hey, it works.

I offer: a committee of planners.

My vote, however, goes to DoD's suggestion. :-c

committee

I was afraid someone would suggest it. Too boring for me.

Going With The Obvious Growth Factor.....

A cavalcade of planners....or a plenary of planners.

Ooh! Ooh! I got it!

A blight of planners.

'nudder one

How about a RANT[I] of planners?

A "meeting" of planners

A Paucity of Planners

An Urbanity of Planners

An Absence of Planners (aka A RJ)

I got it! I got it! I really got it...see below:

Oddly, I went with that first, but snafu had a better ring to it... :)

You may be right, but in either case, the best way to view them would be from a distance perhaps at the Plannertarium.

A cluster of Planners :-D
or
A cluster @#$% of Planners :-$

Obvious: A system of planners

Cynical: A nought of planners

In-joke: A stanza of planners

Cute: A soldier course of planners

Academic: A cooperative of planners

Dumb: A code of planners

A zone of planners

I plan to go all over with this one.

An elite of planners
A whore of planners
A disenchantment of planners
A burnout of planners
A Santorum of planners
A bench of planners
A incompatability of planners
A turgid membership of planners
An underperformance of planners
A Clube of planners

And finally, a pron of Planners (my favorite)

-Platoon
-Company
-Regiment
-Division

groupies

I've been "skewered" enough in this profession, maybe a "ka-bob" of planners is appropriate, at times.:r:

A requirement of planners
A hammer of planners (or is that a hammer of banners?)
A comp of planners
A section of planners (or a subsection of planners)
A delay of planners
An obstacle of planners

My favoorite:
A perfection of planners

Looking at the senior echelons of planning, I might suggest
A Curmudgeon of Planners

but more optimistically,
A Vision of Planners

some more possibilities -- and they seem endless:

[from the developer's viewpoint]
-- an exaction of planners

[from the public's eye]
-- an involvement of planners

[if you don't want any more]
-- a maximum of planners

[if they're just enough in the picture]
-- a minimum of planners

[and if you want some incentive]
-- a bonus of planners

[or if you're more pessimistic]
-- a setback of planners

May I humbly submit:

A violation of planners.

Although I think asshat of planners has a good ring to it...

A Pandemic of Planners

An Oxymoron of Planners

The Stain of Planners

Isn't that a charette of planners?

It has to be...

...a cabal of planners!
