An invention I could not lie without

 One invention that I could not live without is a shower because otherwise how are you going to be clean right you can use a shower for cleaning clothes for a drink and to clean yourself compared to the olden days maybe the used a  bucket and went to a river and they use to use a bath and would fill it up and then they would take turns hopping in and would clean themself you probably wouldn't want to be the last one because the water would be dirty and would probably have germs but now you can have a clean shower.

A toilet is one of the greatest inventions because when people need to go they use to dig a hole in the ground I don’t like that because there might be something in the ground. Did you know that back in the old days toilets use to be together? That’s crazy!
