Reddit /r/DadJokes dataset

Dataset is based on a semi-public Pushshift Reddit dataset.

Source data

The actual extract of all top-level posts on /r/DadJokes can be found in the src/reddit_dadjokes.csv.gz file. The raw post contents are very noisy, so we did a couple of steps to clean things up:

  • Used a Llama-8B-instruct to split each dad joke into the intro and a punchline parts. See src/parse.py script for details.
  • Removed too short and too long posts. Also removed all punchlines being emojis or URLs.
  • There are a lot of duplicate submissions present, so we used the intfloat/e5-base-v2 model for semantic deduplication.

Usage

Dataset has all the metadata to be used with the [HF Datasets] library:

from datasets import load_dataset

data = load_dataset('shuttie/reddit-dadjokes', split='train')

Stats

147753 jokes split to intro and punchline parts. Jokes are from 2014 till 2022.
