Hard to find a proper collective term for people apart from crowd, so I came up with:

A cuddle of Homecoming Queens

A huddle of lawyers

A lack of principals

A colony of lepers

A hangout of nudists

A drowse of underachievers

A flock of tourists

An attitude of seniors

and finally, a thicket of idiots!!!

Gotta love the English language!hysterical
