(The joke below maybe veers a little into the political?
Or maybe not that much.
The mods' call on whether it does or not).
A traveler is visiting Sao Paulo, Brazil.
As he is taking a cab from the airport into the city, he can't help but notice that all the billboards they are passing by along the highway seem to have words misspelled on them.
He notes that "ks" has substituted for the letter "x" on all of them.
One billboard has "Ekscelente" for "excelente." Another has "ekscitante" for "excitante." Still another has "ekstra" for "extra."
Intrigued, he asks the driver "Why are all those words misspelled on the billboards we keep driving by?"
"Oh, that is easy, senhor," the driver replies.
"It is because X has been banned in Brazil."
