Don't get your knickers in a bunch!

Is it only me who has noticed that everything comes in a bunch these days ?

I’m blaming our American cousins for this. The last straw for me was someone using a bunch of water!

Here are some collective names for ‘bunches’ of people.

Blame accepted. We Americans do NOT have a proper grasp of the language.
Hell, we call football soccer, and named another sport football.

Bunch of water sounds funny but also I understand it haha. I’m still mad about “irregardless” being turned into an actual word but such is language, it evolves and we just have to accept it.

Yeah,
I noticed there’s one bunch of peeps from Crypto asking about Forex. And another bunch from Oil, and another from Gold, What’s this world coming to?
:crazy_face:

It’s just an idiom. There are much weirder idioms than that, come to think about it, and it has always been that way. For example, in Victorian times “tight as a boiled owl” meant someone was very, very drunk.

I totally agree. `there are such amazing collective nouns around, why not use them (a murder of crows, an unfriendliness of rooks !)

What a bunch of nonsense lol :laughing:
Thanks a bunch for making my day :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
