Borg jokes need not apply

One of the aspects of the English language that seems to be slowly falling by the wayside is the collective noun. So to preserve that part of speech I give you:

10 collective nouns for 2003

  1. A fizzle of dot coms.
  2. A psychosis of makefiles.
  3. An inability of middle managers.
  4. A GNU of recursive acronyms.
  5. An arrogance of programmers.
  6. A pomposity of bloggers.
  7. A chaos of forum posters.
  8. A suicide of venture capitalists.
  9. A distraction of press.
  10. A Stewart of scapegoats.
