Three learned professors of English from Oxford were walking back to the University after a pleasant nigh in the town, when they passed a group of seductively dressed ladies standing under a lamp post.
As they continued their stroll, their great minds turned to what they had just encountered, and one of them asked what the collective noun might be for the group.
After a while, The first professor suggested a "Hee of Haws".
Then the second professor suggested a "Jam of Tarts"
Finally, the third professor decided it should be an "Anthology of Pros"
Was Norton their pimp?
Hey...why ya gotta bring my collection of faves into this?β£?
The grammar hounds have been released. Commence itching!
@Emme I had a Norton's Anthology of English Literature as a freshman.4 inches of the finest paper ever. As soon as I saw the "anthology" comment, it popped into my head. That it was last opened 45 years ago and I can't remember what I had for breakfast today says all that needs to be said about getting older.
I don't get it. Why isn't this about enticing men whose offerings were detectable? A "HEE/HE of HAWS" might be especially apropos. After all, the learned professors were women, weren't they...and responsive to their aesthetic/carnal appetites. NO?
Donkeys go "Hee Haw". Haw sounds like Whore. The joke is a play on words - and nothing else!
Posse of pros would be more alliterative.
But not as a "collective" noun. It would have to be pronounced "pussy".
so they had a mass-debate I guess.
Nice one!
LOL!

Maybe our collective noun should be a "Reasoning" of agnostics.
