            Oh hand me the Kleenices. "Virii" is bad enough, but what really peeves me is the use of "penii". X|

              The whole thing is silly, really, isn't it? I mean, the singular of "us" is "i" not the other way around

                    Good point there. But, is not always like that. For example, the word 'alumnus' is singular, and 'alumni' is its plural form. I don't know if this one has a connection, but 'Us' and 'I' are pronoun. ;)

                          So... Would a number of groups of octopi be a consortia?
