This makes me think of that whole Exaltation of Larks idea. Someone in the comments suggested “massturbation” as a bunch of wankers. Wouldn’t it be fun if a “masturbation” were a collection?

A flock of sheep, a murder of crows, a masturbation of otaku.

Definitely reminded me of that too, Sammy. As a matter of fact, James Lipton included instructions to a wordplay game in the Appendix of that book. It involves making up new words for collections, i.e. “a masturbation of otaku”.

About The Scrabbled

The Scrabbled is a group of people blogging about and linking to all manner of things. Usually we argue and make fun of each other. Everybody knows everybody through somebody so there are no strangers here. Most of us have even met in real life! If you happen to personally know someone here and would like to start arguing with and/or making fun of someone, shoot John an email and ask to sign up. Otherwise, you're just going to have to read in relative silence. Sorry.
