I don't understand the point of this comment other than to virtue signal that you're better than a bunch of teenagers from a decade ago. Whoop-de-fucking do, aren't you special.

The point is to illustrate that those 'freewheeling actions' are not normal and not just part of 'teenage rebellion'. All of them could cause major harm to oneself or others that's not normal, signs of serious underlying problems. 'BASE jumping' or 'stunt plane piloting' is dangerous but that's something altogether different than 'driving down the freeway blindfolded' - which is quasi suicidal and very dangerous to others.

  So you believe doing bad things is bad, and things that bad are not things that you would ever do, as you are normal. Interesting. I had never considered it that way before.

    That's not what I said at all.

The point of the comment is it’s not run of the mill stupidity, contrary to what the author implies. Is it controversial that people who don’t race drunk and blindfolded are better than people who do? Just because they are teenagers doesn’t mean there are zero standards.
