The Mod Generation

The Society of Cool

Read the following quote from Mojo, by cook, Marco Pierre White, and I think all Mods will agree the man's a t****r. I expect his food must be as greasy as he is.

"Every young boy has to make one important decision in life: whether he's going to be a rocker or Mod. In the 60's I remember seeing the rockers chasing the Mods and I loved the pride the rockers took in their bikes, their leathers, the sound of their machines. They were hard. Us rockers are still standing, aren't we? Mods just don't have that longevity. Why? Because rockers have integrity."

Well him and the other army of chef's who are currently on the box are just a total and utter waste of space. Its no coincidence that his surname rhymes with something that is appropriate to him. I am glad he (or Ramsay, or that mad guy with the triple glazed specs) are not Mods as it would put youngsters off it in the future.

it reminds me of that phrase

"too many cooks .....spoil the telly"

and they do frequently

wot planet is that guy on ?

perhaps he lives near the ace cafe on the north circular and doesnt otherwise get out much ?

Gordon FFFF innnnn Ramsay  actually rides a scooter  ive seen him on it in Essex.

What does he mean, longevity? After 50 years!?

give the guy some credit , , if the mods and rockers trouble stopped around,say, 1966 this man has some memory seeing as he was born in dec 1961 and as most trips to the sea side took place on bank holidays in spring and summer , he was only 4 yrs old ,maybe he s stewie from family guy,the wisdom of king david

As his family lived in Leeds they must have had long day trips to Brighton, Margate, Hastings etc.

Perhaps he suffers from the condition "False Memory Syndrome" or to put it another way he's a fantasist.

So much for rockers having "integrity". 

The question is: what an old biker and an old mod looks like after living his dream for so many years? Well, i remember in my youth going to a rockabilly concert and told myself, "wow they really grow bad, i don't wanna look like that in my older days". In fact old bikers look like cavemen for most. The dirt is a symbol. The more the leather smells, the more they proove they sat on their greasy machines.

The old mod grew up in the elegance, his suits are always smarter and his mind always sharper. I don't want to dig up war axe between Mods and Rockers but we know what we are and why we are here.

This moron should remember how the characters end up in "easy rider"! Yes, where does he live? Does he have a computer? Does he watch too much "sons of anarchy"?

His article is a symbol of nowadays journalism objectivity.........

If you  think that they look bad, what about ancient Teds? Suggs was on "Yesterday" channel recently, interviewing some. Good case for compulsory euthanasia.

j***e o****r has his scooter

look at the way he looks and dresses - need i say more

Just googled him out of curiosity as I didn´t know him, hahaha! What a complete tit, haha don´t think I´d eat anything he´s had his fingers on!

Here´s a similar poor sod who´s a german tv cook: I get nightmares about goatee hairs in my soup, YUK!

At least we have another TV cook here, Tim Maelzer, who wears Ben Sherman almost exclusively. Not that it´s my favourite brand, but as a non- mod at least he´s making an effort:
