This crappy collage from 22 years ago popped up in my "remember this day" feed. (probably taken with a motorola flip phone) Which led me to wonder what would be a good collective noun for a group of General Lees...

I would've guessed Confederacy lol

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 6 points 1 day ago

This is the only answer I'll accept as real, and I have logged it in my head cannon. Thank you for your service.

[–] crenquis@lemmy.today 8 points 1 day ago

That seems like the most technically correct answer

[–] mortalic@lemmy.world 61 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'm going with "A Treason"

[–] crenquis@lemmy.today 57 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My friend suggested "A Surrender"

[–] db2@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Probably also from not making the payments.

[–] smuuthbrane@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 day ago

Considering both the name and that they were all probably stunt cars for Dukes of Hazzard, I'll suggest "a loss".

[–] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I believe that should be Generals Lee. Like Attorneys General

[–] diemartin@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

Attorneys Generals Lees Marvins Gaye

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

A lost cause.

[–] _skj@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago (1 children)

A rally, works for a car or a Klansman

[–] mercano@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The jumps they did on the show frequently bent the frame of the stunt car, totaling it. They went through quite a few cars. I wonder if this is a new batch incoming or an old batch headed for the scrap yard.

[–] crenquis@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago

I think they were new ones for the movie they made back then

[–] cattywampas@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Generals Lee, it's like Attorneys General or Surgeons General.

[–] eurodyne@piefed.world 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

If they were actual generals, yes, but since “General Lee“ is the entire name and “General” is not a rank/title, it’s “General Lees”. Because this isn’t a group of generals named “Lee”, it’s a group of cars named “General Lee”.

So the correct pluralization would be “General Lees”.

It’s easy to get confused with this exception to the rule

[–] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Could have been a bunch of General Motors products on the leeside of a mountain range.

But im pretty sure they were MOPAR.

[–] cattywampas@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago

It's just a shitpost

Golden opportunity for a “that’s what she said” joke, thank you!

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 hours ago

She told me she never said that

[–] thagoat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] osaerisxero@kbin.melroy.org 4 points 1 day ago

That's the collective noun for a group of comedians.

Generals, Lee
