A Covey of Quail, A ???? of Wackos

Just wondering if there is a name to describe a group of Wackos.

As of 10/8/99, and with the latest flurry (?) of new Wackos, there are now 73 Wackos.

Among the 'elite' level -- those who have 500 or more posts, there are 6:

I'll leave to you to you figure out what a group of us would be called, but it doesn't look good.

"TheLightkeeper"

I wasn't going to say it until the last post but how about...... "A Ship of Wacko's."

Gee, John, ....I better put my engines in gear if I'm going to catch up to you regarding the total amount of posts!

Thanks TheLightKeeper for the definitions and etymology.

How about "committed"? As in "I'm a committed Wacko from my residence in the East Louisiana State Hospital."

We spend all this time comtemplating HLs, now we have collectively name ourselves?

A Gackle of Wackos!

Just thought of a "Tender" of Wackos - like the lighthouse supply ships that provided supplies to those on remote locations.

Maybe a "keep" of Wacko's since, curiously, it means as a verb to provide with maintenance and support, to celebrate, and to persevere, and, as a noun, it stands for care and custody and, secondly, a castle's stronghold (strength).

Just left my vet's office with my dog a few hours ago, and he had a sign that showed all of those animal groups. You know, a gaggle of geese, covey of quail, etc. Anyway, I liked the one that applied to penguins. It had a certain ring to it when applied to Wackos. How about "A Smack of WACKOS."
