My grandparents owned a small farm in upstate New York from around 1895 to 1925. Electricity had not been run out to that rural area for quite a long time. My Grandmother had sisters in New York City and they had electricity and the plethora of electric labor saving devices such as electric stoves instead of wood burning types, electric refrigerators instead of ice boxes, etc. She was very envious.

My Grandmother nagged my Grandfather relentlessly for years, making him promise that when the farm got electricity, he would go into the City and buy all of those fabulous products and send them up.

Finally, that day came and Gramps made good on his promise... he went to town and bought everything electric! Stove, refrigerator, washer, dryer, dishwasher, freezer, fans, lamps, console radio, record players, vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, and much more. He had everything shipped at once!

When he got back to the farm he expected my Grandmother to be finally happy and satisfied. But she was still grumpy, only now for a different reason. She had so much stuff, she complained, she had no place to sit down.

So he got her an electric chair.
