meme_text_corpus.txt Byte-level training rendering (TEMPLATE: / TEXT: / --- records)
meme_text_corpus.jsonl One JSON record per line with metadata (schema below)

Schema (JSONL) 

{"source": "dank_learning"|"memotion2",
 "template": str,                 // meme template slug, e.g. "y u no", "brian bad news"
 "text": str,                     // caption text (single line, whitespace-normalized)
 // Memotion 2.0 rows additionally carry:
 "humor"?: str, "sarcasm"?: str, "offensive"?: str, "sentiment"?: str, "split"?: str}

Sources & licenses

Source License Contribution
Dank Learning (memegenerator.net scrape, 2018; paper arXiv:1806.04510) MIT ~411k template-caption pairs (majority of corpus)
Memotion 2.0 Research dataset — see its dataset card; labels used as metadata only ~7k OCR'd meme texts with humor/sarcasm/offensive/sentiment labels
imgflip get_memes API imgflip ToS 100-template taxonomy reference (metadata only, no caption text)

Cleaning

  • Exact dedup on whitespace/case-normalized text; near-dedup with word-3-gram Jaccard ≥ 0.8 within (template, first-3-words) buckets.
  • Filters (excluded, counts in CORPUS_REPORT.md): non-English heuristic, slur/hateful blocklist, explicit-sexual-content list, Memotion very_offensive rows, length outside [8, 600] chars.
  • Mild profanity remains — meme text is crude by nature. The offensive label is preserved for downstream filtering.

Known limitations

  • 2018-era meme culture (memegenerator.net); dated references.
  • Captions are single-line (top/bottom split not recoverable from the source).
  • English-only by construction; non-English filter is heuristic.

Reproduction

Full pipeline + scripts: see the create-datasets project repo (scrapers/, scripts/, qc/, CORPUS_REPORT.md).
