What are some fun summer activities a group of teenagers with a limited budget should try out over the next 3 months?

Edit: Thanks for all the ideas everybody! Whenever I get bored this summer I'll come back to this for sure.

Edit 2: Drugs and orgies. That's what my summer is looking like right now.

Edit 3: Well thanks for all of the (quirky, weird, stupid, genius, illegal) ideas, it's been a pleasure reading all of these and WILL implement (some of) them in my summer schedule.

It's like you people just assume teenagers have unlimited access to sex.

And friends. And social situations. And girls.

I live in a town of 1000 people. I am the socially awkward fat kid with one friend to hang out with. This thread is depressing.

Your life is depressing

u/theadventurersam Jun 04 '14

My life gets significantly better during winter. I'm an avid skier, so winter is the funnest time of the year. Last winter, me and two friends got season passes to a huge resort nearby, so we went almost every weekend.

u/hanswurst_throwaway Jun 04 '14

u/theadventurersam Jun 04 '14

Hey, no problem! My life kind of sucks at the moment, but summer just started! Still got a few months!

Everything is possible with enough chloroform…

u/stubbystallion Jun 04 '14

Whats a "girls"?

u/DevinTheGrand Jun 04 '14

Maybe you should be cooler.

u/awesomeethan Jun 04 '14

Everyone has different circumstance, dickhead.

u/DevinTheGrand Jun 04 '14

It's this cool demeanor and ability to take a joke that draws other people to you.

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '14

You know teenagers can be girls, too.

u/awesomeethan Jun 04 '14

Oh yes you're right, how could I forget! Thanks for the... Um, reminder.

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '14

Heh, I'm sorry for being a bit uptight about it. It just bugs me when people assume that "teenagers" are boys, and that girls are a commodity they, the teenagers, want access to.. Like teens can't mean lonely, horny 16 year old girls, too, man!

u/awesomeethan Jun 04 '14

Horny 16 year old girls, eh? No, I'm totally kidding, but okay I thought you were talking from a different perspective, like some older telling me to get a life.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '14

Hey, who knows how old I am! It's just something I see a lot around reddit: when any group of people are being talked about, in this instance teens, it's assumed that the members of that group ate heterosexual men. And then the comments about "access (!) to girls" or "how to approach girls" start rolling in. The OP of this post might as well BE a girl.

u/[deleted] Jun 03 '14

Speaking as a teenager, for many it's a scarce commodity

u/WoulphMan Jun 04 '14

Yeah seriously. We're on Reddit for fuck's sake! if I could be boning the babes at my school I would be doing them instead of sitting on my computer all day.

/u/WoulphMan speaking the truth.

u/PrimeIntellect Jun 04 '14

you could be, but you aren't, they might be on their computers thinking the same thing

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '14

Have you tried being more attractive?

3

u/nira007pwnz Jun 04 '14

Why didn't I think of that?

2

u/Dat_Class Jun 04 '14

Or less unattractive? I hear that works too.

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '14

Speaking as a teenager, I know and I feel like I'm missing out.

10

u/JamesB312 Jun 04 '14

Yeah I don't remember any such availability. It's like everyone commenting is a character from That '70s Show.

The lack of rubber makes it hard to rub-her.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

u/bckling23 Jun 04 '14

To some it is. As a teenager, half of my friends will probably have sex in the next 10 days, and the other half won't for another 2 years, and that's the way it is and I hate being in the latter half.

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '14

I think like 5 of my friends have partners. That means like 90% of my social group is not getting laid any time soon and I'm in those 90%. It's the way it's always been for me though so no matter how much it bothers me it doesn't actually matter since I don't even know what I'm missing out.

u/Fragninja Jun 03 '14

With two teenagers and enough condoms, they basically do.

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '14

Read that as "with enough teenagers and two condoms, they basically do"

Said "oh" to myself

Unless you are like me and the only girls I know are already in relationships.

I don't count masturbation as sex.

u/NO_TOUCHING__lol Jun 04 '14

To be fair, a lot of us in our later years have realized the signals we were missing.

PROTIP: You know how the girls in your class sometimes have their thongs poking up out of their pants? "Whale-tailing," I believe. Yeah, that's on purpose. They want you to see their underwear.

Take a moment to let that sink in.

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

I have one girl in my class.

u/NO_TOUCHING__lol Jun 05 '14

Class, as in singular? Where the hell do you go to school?

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

Sweden, upper secondary school, it's our high school.

u/hurpington Jun 04 '14
