Just for that I'm going to .... ;)

Oh! Oh! I forgot my number one hate! People (and everyone does it) starting a sentence with "so". Jesus ****ing Christ! So is a conjunction, or else an adverb, depending on which way you use it. But it's dependent on an earlier sentence or part of the sentence. "The shops were shut, so I couldn't buy milk" NOT "So what we do in this company is make pens." SHUT THE **** UP NOW YOU ****S!!!!

Dear Grindy,

Sushi != fish

Sushi is a preparation.

Dear ****face,

not being a retard I am aware of that.
The way WWWP phrased it, she seemed to refer to sushi with fish specifically.

Sincerely,

**** that. Four people are; a company of hundreds is. I don't give a **** about the rule because sometimes the rule sounds awkward and bull**** and I'll break it as I see fit.

^ Actually, I'm pretty sure you can use either for words that refer to a single group with members that can be considered as individuals too:-
My family is/are crazy. The herd has/have moved on. The team is/are playing well.

"A cloud of particles" will always be single, because who cares about the personality of one particle ?

^ Sorry to deflate your fury, Trollheart, but sometimes sentences can start with "so", especially in conversation. Your second sentence is fine in spoken English because the word "so" is an accepted "discourse marker". It is one of a group of words we use that don't mean much more than "I'm going to say something now".
Other common discourse markers are OK, Right, Well, and Now Then.

I get you and veggie sushi or the ones with tamagoyaki are delicious.
Still kind of an understandable mistake though.
