## Files

* The main dataset can be found in `data/jokes.csv`.

* The primary notebook used for scrapping the aforementioned websites is `notebooks/walks_into_bar_scrapper.ipynb`.

* `notebooks/seleniumconfig.py` is a helper module for obtaining a chrome `WebDriver` with predefined configurations.

* **Note** - Running the scrapper notebook requires installing all the packages in `requirements.txt`. Additionally, a chromedriver executable suitable for your operating system needs to be present in the root directory.

## Disclaimer

Please note that the data has been webscrapped with minimal editing of the original text.

Therefore some jokes might be repeated, or might be NSFW. Certain websites had user-provided jokes, which as a result might not conform to the general structure of a walks-into-a-bar joke.

Feel free to contribute to this dataset if you can come across further sources for bar jokes.
