Good jokes?

Post by Monk9899 » Tue Mar 29, 2011 9:59 am

I have started working on a jokes app for psp (i saw this app on my friends ipod)
i am temporarily naming it jokebox
now i need a list of jokes.
so anyone knows a good (large) collection of jokes, hopefully by category??

I saw a few sites but none of them were good enough.

If anyone knows of a jokes archive (from which i can easily copy jokes) or something please help.

Thanks a lot :D

You'd have to get permission from the owner of the jokes to use it. Also can't you think of your own. It's really not your app if you steal the jokes from someone else!

He did not say he was going to use that persons joke he said he want to make something like it for the PSP. Also do you really thing the creator of that IPOD app really came up with all those jokes no they were probably all from the internet it would take a long time for someone to make up 18,000 jokes :roll:

ok so...

Why didn't the skeleton cross the road? Cause he didn't have the guts.

Why don't seagulls fly by the bay? Cause then they'd be called bagels.

What do you call it when 2 Spaniards fight? Juan on Juan.

What did one tomato say to the other as they were rolling down the hill? "Go ahead. I'll ketchup!".

What did the grape do when it got stepped on? It let out a little wine.

What do you call a fly with no wings? A walk.

Ok, I know this can go easily off-topic. I suggest everybody to give a link to the OP, or better, to suggest him to search in google. I think google can do the work. Another possibility is to make a thread in the Off-topic forum.

Also, I doubt he needs permission from the owner of a site to use (public domain) jokes, but can be a problem to use all the jokes and content from a single site, so I suggest to make a compilation.

ya thanks for those jokes yamagushi. i'll add them.

i found a database on the internet after an hour of searching.
the guy who made it wrote that anyone can use the database, so i hope that all the jokes in my app don't have to be my own and i can use that database(20,000 jokes i think)

and no i'm not using the same jokes from the app.
i just said that i got the idea from that because when i saw it i searched for a similar program for psp but couldn't find one.

what i wanted was a database or something of jokes, not a joke site, because to copy one joke at a time would take years if i wanted even 5000 jokes.

Good for you if you found a database (made yet) of jokes. Copying a joke at a time from any site and putting it in a database shouldn't take years, for that job exist the programming skills... Just program a subroutine to extract the text, put it in your table in a database and you're done. Anyway, you need to make a program to extract the text from the database.

yes, thats what my program basically will do.
extract text from the database and display it on the psp(with some fancy gfx)

i am quite a noob at programming. i know only a bit of c++, bit of basic and quite some actionscript(2.0).
so i don't think i would be able to make a program to extract jokes from a website :?

anyway for this programming i'm using c++ on eclipse with minpspw by paulo lopes(amazing guy).
