I had a friend who lived near the railroad tracks. Sometimes, for fun, he and his brother would go down there and wait for a train to come by and pull down their pants and bend over and show their bare asses to the passengers. I don’t know if kids still do things like that, I imagine they do. My sense of it is that well meaning adults have discouraged kids from doing the things we used to do for fun routinely. Like throw aerosol cans into fires. Back then you could burn trash in your back yard and if you snuck in some
aerosol cans they would explode. Other things we did regularly included throwing eggs and rocks at cars and houses, blowing up mailboxes, vandalizing construction sites and stealing damn near anything that wasn’t nailed or tied down. When we got older we stole cars and shoplifted until finally a couple of us - including me - got arrested.
