Playing post office?

(1/6) > >>

curlysdame:
I just watched 'Three Little Pigskins' today, and although I've seen this short many times, I still can't figure out what he's talking about when Curly says "Let's play post office!"    ???

'Anybody know what that is?

xraffle:
That's a kids game, but not the way I play it. ;D

Anyway, all joking aside, I honestly don't know.

ThumpTheShoes:
I always guessed it had something to do with making a delivery-- and something you do with stamps.

metaldams:
In a somewhat rare short, though available now on one of the volumes of Laurel and Hardy silent DVD's, Charley Chase's WHISPERING WHOOPEE has some "post office" in it.  I don't remember the exact rules of the game, I'll watch the short tomorrow and tell you guys, but I can safely say the game's sexual in nature.  WHISPERING WHOOPEE is a pre-code film, so back then you could get away with a little more than what the Stooges could.

metaldams:
Then again, it may be a kid's game as well, but I'll give you guys the details of the short tomorrow when I get a fresh viewing.  In the meantime, as far as a kid's game version....
