To refresh, a collective noun is used to refer to a group of anything. Of course we know the easier ones like a colony of ants or say, a school of fish. Some interesting collective nouns I found on Wikipedia are the following:
An acne of adoloescents
An absence of waiters
An addition of mathematicians
An annoyance of mobile phones
A column of architects
A comedy of airline schedules
A converting of preachers
A dish of gossips
An expectation of heirs
A flag of Americans
A hang-out of nudists
A lie of politicians
A giggle of girls
A goggle of aviators
A hug of teddy bears
An indecision of managers
An ingratitude of children
A nag of grandparents
A pie-full of apples
A pride of stage mothers
A quiz of teachers
A shortage of dwarves
A skull of friars
An unemployment of graduates
An unhappiness of husbands
A village of gays
A vomit of goblins
