Although I wouldn't call your situation a "little bit of fun for the boys", I would say overall that there are far less "pranks" (which you'rs wasn't) pulled by kids these days than 50 years ago.

I guess pushing over your neighbour's outhouse then running for a mile or two did somebody some good right?
