El Risitas was the stage name of Spanish comedian Juan Joya Borja, whose laugh came from a 2007 interview on the Canal Sur show Ratones Coloraos. The clip stayed little known for years until subtitled parody versions began circulating online around 2014, with creators writing fake translations that made him appear to laugh at topics from technology to politics. Those edits turned his wheezing laugh into a universal reaction sound. It remains popular because the laugh needs no translation and instantly signals that something is absurd.
