"I like my relationships like I like my source, open
I like my coffee like I like my war, cold
I like my boys like I like my sectors, bad"
These are the funny jokes. Enthusiasm tempered.
- ToastyMallows 13y agoTo be fair, these jokes do clearly follow the 4 points laid out in the article. In addition, I did snicker at #2.
- blt 13y agoTheir joke model misses one thing: each noun has to be commonly used in the phrase "I like my <noun> <adj>". People often say "I like my coffee black" but nobody ever says "I like my source open." I think that is why they sound weird. But I like the off-kilter unexptectedness.
- mjn 13y agoFor jokes in this pattern, there's a somewhat more hard-coded twitter bot that I think does a better job: https://twitter.com/ilikelikeilike https://twitter.com/ilikelikeilike It does jokes of the form "I like my <noun1> like I like my <noun2>: <adj>, <adj>, [and not] <adj>". noun1 is taken from a hand-coded list (hookups, fellas, lovers, spouses, etc.). noun2 is chosen randomly. Then the adjectives are just the top three adjectives found preceding noun2 in a corpus. So for example, I like my men like I like my banking: inefficient, shadow, not shady. 'men' was chosen from the hard-coded list. 'banking' was just a random noun. "inefficient banking", "shadow banking", and "shady banking" are common phrases in the corpus, so those three adjectives were chosen.

- jjoonathan 13y agoOh, come on. This kind of joke is supposed to fall into the "so bad, it's good" category, which all three of these do in spades. Especially the bad sectors one.
