Things They Should Invent: cliché carbon dating

When was the last time a safe or a piano fell?
When was the last time people regularly set pies out on windowsills to cool?
When was the last time doctors wore those reflector things on their heads?
When was the last time professors wore academic robes to class?
When was the last time nurses wore nurse costumes instead of scrubs?
When was the last time daily newspapers were regularly delivered by children?
When was the last time people ran away with a bundle tied to the end of a stick?
When was the last time old ladies and housewives regularly wore curlers in the middle of the day?
