We have a joke in our family that if there is such a thing as reincarnation, my wife has lived more lives than anyone else because, once she had reached the age of awareness and discovered that flush toilets hadn't yet been invented, she'd commit suicide.

For example, people slept in multiple cycles each night until as late as the change of the last century. As for refrigerators, I well remember iceboxes and the coming of the iceman three times each week. (BTW, we also had gas streetlights)
