“Yeah, I nicked this vodka from my parents house.” “Wow, that’s kind of a dick move.”
Claiming to have a boyfriend/girlfriend in “another town”.
Why it seemed cool then: It indicated that you *might* have got to third base with someone.
Why it's not cool now: It would be pretty damn obvious. Like, "Ooh yeah, just going away this weekend to visit my boyfriend in another town who absolutely exists and definitely isn't just a stock photo I found on Google."

Drinking large amounts of cheap cider/beer in parks.
Why it seemed cool then: Being able to neck four cans in the space of an hour without vomiting was the indicator of the seasoned and experienced underage drinker.
Why it's not cool now: Drinking in parks as an adult is pretty much a sign that your life isn't going too well (unless it's wine or posh cider and you're having a picnic, then it's fine).
Stealing booze from your parents' house.
Why it seemed cool then: Bringing spirits you stole from your parents to a party seemed cool when nobody had actually tried hard liquor before (even if they had claimed to). The kid that did this usually drank it all really quickly and then vomited everywhere.
Why it's not cool now: "Yeah I nicked this vodka out of my mum's booze cabinet."
"Wow, that's kind of a dick move."
Smoking in the school toilets.
Why it seemed cool then: Those kids at every school who slyly smoked were generally completely terrifying but you still kind of wanted to be in their group.
Why it's not cool now: Well, it's illegal for a start, and it's absolutely gross.
