One thing you need to realize that any people later in life who are older also will realize, is that what a person does in their teens does not necessarily reflect on who they are later in life.
We all are immature at that age, its just some of us do dumber crazier things than others.
The reason we do, is that the frontal part of the brain responsible for us to make good decisions, and judgements isn't finished developing until we hit mid 20's. But our bodies mature sooner and so we feel like we are adult but do things that aren't smart. The best thing you can do in the future until you hit that age when your brain has c aught up with your body, is to think twice before you do something...and if you still can't find anything wrong with a fun prank or such, bounce your ideas off someone past age 25, the older the better...use them as a sounding board, because perhaps they can see implications that may crop up in the future. Even the 20 some yr olds write in for advice using us as their sounding board.
If later in life, someone just might find something on the internet, and they decide to judge you by that, they aren't worth your time, whether for job or relationship, because it is unfair to judge someone based on what they did as a teen growing up. If what they did as a teen is something they are still doing in current day as an adult, it is an indicator to steer clear of them. So as long as you mature and grow as a person, a mature person will only judge your character based on who you are at the current time.
