THE MODULARS — The temporary housing units known as the ‘Mods’, beloved by seniors and yearned after by freshmen, celebrate their fiftieth birthday this year. The Mods are often featured on Instagram and other forms of social media, and recently a picture of them with Kelly O’Brian (LOSE ’21), their considerably younger, hotter girlfriend, surfaced.
“Oh I remember those guys back in their 20s,” recalls Philip Taylor, Boston College ’90, “trashed every weekend, ate like shit, still killed it with the ladies.”
It has recently come to the Classic’s attention that the Mods look like shit. They’re old, smell like piss, and have a whole lot of sag around the shingles. No amount of fresh paint jobs and new fences can take them back to the 90s, especially when their girlfriend doesn’t like Nirvana.
Maria DePaul, roommate to O’Brian, told us “When Kelly told us she was dating the Mods we were all like, you know you’re 21, right? You can just buy your own alcohol. She says they just ‘get each other’ or whatever, but I went out with them once and the Mods spent the whole time talking about real estate and tipped like 3%. I don’t see it.”
However, O’Brian is a self-proclaimed ‘old soul’, while the Mods recently tweeted that they are ‘young at heart’. Reports have surfaced that their zodiac signs are compatible as well, so there may be some hope for this seemingly-rocky relationship.
At press time, BCPD was searching the Mods for a stolen cradle.
