That word -

The hippie quotient was surprisingly low... though there were the odd pair of ubiquitous multi-coloured stockings

I always liked the (completely real, honest) word Ubiquitarian. How awesome is that?

I think it means what they think it means, but that they think badly.

A piece of biochemist trivia and sicko whimsy... there is a protein called ubiquitin, because it is, well, found in everything. Chains of it attach to other proteins targeting them for degradation. Reading this trigerred a moment of weird morbid little fantasy about the biological function of multi-coloured stockings.
