Venezuelan humor often features wordplay and cultural quirks. A classic Venezuelan joke: “¿Por qué los maracuchos ponen el aire acondicionado a 16°C? Porque 15 es Quince.” (Why do people from Maracaibo set the air conditioner to 16°C? Because 15 is Quince [a celebration].) This plays on the hot climate of Maracaibo and the double meaning of ‘quince’. Another popular joke is: “¿Cómo se dice ‘goodbye’ en venezolano? ‘Nos vemos en el aeropuerto’.” (How do you say ‘goodbye’ in Venezuelan Spanish? ‘See you at the airport’.) This humorously references the high emigration rate from Venezuela in recent years.
