It has been awhile since I tackled the collective noun series, and so ladies and gentlemen (or should I say ladies and germs), may I present to you the elite of the single-celled organisms, the most civilized of all primitive life forms: a culture of bacteria.

  4. I just love taking a peek into different cultures.

    The little green guy looks like he’s saying “Bacillus, my good man, I must have the name of your tailor. Why, I’ve traveled from petri dish to petri dish searching for a mauve scarf just like that. Can I get you another glass of agar?”

    I’m thrilled the collective noun series is still alive and well. You are so darn clever my dear! This rocks.
