Back when I was a kid in high school, we used to go behind the local comic book store and have 3 liter challenges, where we would attempt to chug a 3 liter bottle of soda (your choice of flavor.) It almost always ended in everyone throwing up. It was good times all around, then we went back inside and played Street Fighter II and Magic: The Gathering.

drinking pop til you puke is nothing compared to burning your skin off... can't teenagers just be moody, smoke pot, listen to music and write poetry like they are supposed to? or rebel with piercings and hair styles?

Stupid people will do stupid sh*t. It has nothing to do with "today's youth."

I heard some friends in high school talking about fireworks (one was at the time a retailer of them), and one told the story of a kid on a bicycle was was trying to light some rockets when a policeman came by. The kid quickly hid the rockets in his rear trouser pocket, unaware that he had already lit them. After a brief talk with the policeman, the rockets in the kid's pocket went off and he flew off his bike. The policeman cracked up at the sight.
