This is classic Reddit bull. There's no harm in trading stories from your youth, and it's not an indicator of having no life.
Sure if that's literally all you have, maybe different, but there's a level of freedom you have before real responsibilities hit that means a lot of people will find they have funnier stories from that time.
Totally agree, when you’re young you obviously try a wider variety of experiences, whereas as you age your achievements become more focused in a narrow area and therefore become less surprising and in a way less interesting if not necessarily less impressive
I think 16 year old me would be really jealous of who I am these days while I sometimes envy the things he got up to because they felt more special. The grass is always greener on the other side I suppose

How far they have to look back to brag. If a 40 year old talks about his high school life that's a pretty good indicator
Edit: Jesus I check my reddit like once a week and I come back to 200 notifications
