Mod is a dandified youth subculture that developed and was strongest in the 1960's, but has experienced many reincarnations since then and is still very much in existance. As with many subcultures, the defining characteristics are clothing and music, both of which become an obsession for Mods. The clothing has a vintage, well-taylored, and peacockish look, favoring bright patterns, plenty of color, brands like Ben Sherman and Fred Perry, and slim-cut, three button suits (preferrably Italian) in the style of the sixties. The favored music of Mods is varied rather widely but, for the most part, shares the characteristic of being danceable. Favored genres include old school Ska, Soul, and R&B as well as New Wave, Britpop, and some things that, today, are heaped into the rather loose label of "Alternative Rock". Another defining characteristic of Mods is their chosen mode of transportation, the Italian moterscooter (most notably Vespa and Lambretta). Not everyone who rides a scooter is Mod, however. These scooters tend to be in a retro style and sometimes heavily customized. Unlike the case with some other social subgroups, there exists no Mod ideology or philosophy(outside of a general avoidance of violence because of unwillingness to damage their clothes and the idea that, as The Who put it in one of their earliest songs "you gotta be cool"). However, this does not mean that Mods do not have any depth; only that there is no specific mindset associated with the group. Urban Dictionary

In computers: 1. Modification. Ranges from add-ons (Example: UT2K4 VCTF) to Total Conversions (Example: Classic Doom for Doom 3, Red Orchestra, Counter-Strike) 2. Moderators. The ones who lay down and enforce rules in forums/message boards. Urban Dictionary

Often this term stands for modification; in reference to vaping pens, a mod is simply a vaping pen (type of electronic cigarette) with a bigger battery, and more functionality to give a device which holds a charge longer, produces more flavor, more "throat hit", and usually offers other functions such as variable voltage, variable resistance, and recently temperature control. Mods are continually being improved, e.g. with computerized electronics which can be upgraded via bluetooth connection. Urban Dictionary

Youth characterized by sharp fashion, influenced by 1960's music and culture, and a possible love of Vespa/Lambretta/Piaggio scooters showing alienation from mainstream pop culture. This style originated in Britian. The word "Mod" can also be loosely tied to a "modernist", who does not fill the above characteristics, but is "hip" into today's appealing fashions/trends/etc... Urban Dictionary

Short for moderator. For example, the moderator in an internet chat room. Urban Dictionary

Adj: shorthand for modern, specifically describes something that has very horizontal or vertical lines. Urban Dictionary

For a full explanation, watch the movie 'Quadrophenia'. Urban Dictionary
