When did this "olly olly oxen free" thing become a thing?
I've never heard of it. In my day, you just kept looking until you found the cunts.

"Olly Olly Oxen Free" is a phrase used in children's games, particularly in Hide and Seek, to indicate that those hiding can come out into the open without any risk of being tagged or losing. The origin and exact meaning of the phrase are a bit obscure, but it's believed to have evolved from an older phrase, possibly something like "all ye, all ye, 'outs' in free," which might have meant "everyone who is 'out' can come in free."

The phrase likely dates back at least to the 19th century, as variations of it appear in literature from that time. It became a staple of children's games, especially in English-speaking countries. The phrase and the game itself are part of a long tradition of children's outdoor games, passed down through generations mainly through oral tradition rather than formal written rules. The exact wording can vary by region and even from one group of children to another.

The humor in the joke comes from the fact that female kangaroos have multiple vaginas
