"Call the police, I am being attacked by a [blank] of Haibao!"

God forbid you should ever come across two or more of the Shanghai World Expo mascots in the street, at least now, thanks to Shanghai Daily, you know the proper collective noun to use when describing the furry blue monsters to the 119 operator: Brace. "I am being attacked by a brace of Haibao!" Should there be six Haibao, you would say "three brace of Haibao!" Seven? Good luck. No one has ever escaped from such an encounter alive. Please note that, like "fish" and "zucchini", the plural form of Haibao is also Haibao, making them even creepier. [Via apgalbraith on Twitter] more ›
