I have a hard time believing users in your demographic (16-25) are really going to label themselves as "not doing jackshit".

I remember when I was in high school I would always be on AIM Friday and Saturday night, because naturally I had a curfew and that's what I did - go online. Funny thing is NOBODY was ever online Friday and Saturday night. Everybody was on for hours on end during the weekday of course, but come Fri/Saturday - not a soul. The point is, you know damn well everybody else had a curfew too and everybody else was doing jackshit online too, and everybody else was at most doing jackshit "over at someone else's house", - but nevertheless, it was an unspoken rule (apparently) that you make it look like you are out and about having a great time by not being on AIM.

Aspurd, I remember those time in high school too (I'm 21). A huge part of Hcp is flipping "not doing jackshit" into "I'm down to have a good time", which means the same thing, but is less desparate. Today, I notice many of my friends are on facebook on weekend nights because online social norms have changed a ton the last few years, and I'm sure they wish they knew a few more social options. Good question, it's one we get a lot.
