Where I am brown is live. So they're all live wires apparently.

The house was built in the early 1920s so I'm not surprised that it's weird. It was built before homes really had electricity or indoor plumbing so the wiring and bathroom were added after the fact. Combined with the fact that the previous owner did a lot of DIY and weren't very good at it.
