i have to say that i don't think all mods 
"ride a Honda scooter, listen to
hip-hop/house/techno, wear track suits,
pierce various body parts and otherwise do the most
"modern"/faddish thing around"
some of us like to take the sense of style and music
of the original mods, but to live in the present
instead of wallowing in the past, thank you very
much...
Why are we modern mods not allowed to like new music
AND old music?  New clothing AND old clothing?

and why must we continue to make irrelevant attacks on
other peoples appearances, hygiene, and personal
eating habits?
