You no longer have to use anything on stamps. You just peel them off the paper they come one and they stick right on the envelope. Before they did this, we used water. If you put them on your envelopes in the post office, they always provided a little glass that held a wet sponge and you just pressed the stamp on it and them put it on your letter.

In that case, I'd definitely use water.

Neither i buy the stamps that are like stickers. Just peel off the book and stick it to the envelope.

This is one absurd thing. I use cooked rice to stick a thing to something, and I think I've done it once with the old stamps...yeah.

Well i've seen some people doing it with their tongue, m like come on its so unhygenic so i rather put on gum stick over it and then stick it!

Water. I use water most of time. I don't think using saliva to paste the stamp is a good idea too.

Back before they invented the handy sticky ones I licked them. The taste was horrid but it was the quickest.
