Collective noun for a group of klutzes, which is also descriptive. The large number of collective nouns in English is based on a tradition of "terms of venery" or "nouns of assembly" that are specific to certain kinds of animals, and stems from an English hunting tradition of the Late Middle Ages.
"Don't speak to me before coffee! I'm just a bumble of klutzes!" (Words spoken by the character Velocity Elfaerie in her conversations with Daniel Damask, from "The Book of Names" written by Severine Demure.) The former character is describing her every morning dilemma and proceeds to cite a long list of the names of all her personnae, several of whom are 'klutzes.'
"That is to say I am not a morning person. I mean, I'm not really sure who I am yet today, and, it is sure, whoever is in charge cannot possibly have the culture under control."
A fascinating account which adds a neologism to the lexicon of collective nouns, a 'bumble' of klutzes.
