See Randi’s list today of collective nouns for woosters. My favorite, “a drawer of spoonbenders,” although “a saucer of UFO abductees/believers” is also pretty good. Click the link for the full list.
I suggested “a closet of Secretards”. Feel free to make up better ones.
How about "an attraction of Secretards"? Or, based on Blair Warren's suggestion in an earlier thread, an "extraction of Secretards"?
I'd also like to submit a "phlegm of Bleepers" (based on the dancing jell-o in the film) and a "D-pak of Chopraists."

I think "a manifested Radio-Flyer wagon of Secretards" works. Tom's "D-pak of Chopraists" had me laughing out loud - thanks for that!

Love the 'whiff of aromatherapists' and the 'notion of telepaths' - and 'D-Pak of Chopraists' (got me again, Tom) & 'immersion of Baptists' rock.
