Humor-O-Rama is your go-to "Humor Diner" for cartoon, caption, and contestant analytics. This site was built to analyze the data behind the laughs. We track many different datasets and created graphs, reports, and leaderboards. We couldn't resist and created some fun with the Humor Compatibility Check and Finalist Connector. The written word is good and we also post articles on our human humor adventures!

Humor-O-Rama was born from a passion for the intersection of computer & data science and single-panel cartoons. As a creator who enjoys 'wrangling, munging, and analyzing data,' I realized that the humor world—including the legendary The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest—offered a fascinating dataset that deserved its own leaderboard.

This site serves as a 'Humor Diner,' a dedicated space for enthusiasts to track contest distributions, connect with fellow finalists through varying methods such as: graph theory or 'Before and After The Moment' panels. Whether it's through our PanelStripLOL website or our deep-dive analytics into cartoonist success rates, our goal is to provide a smattering of humor backed by hard data.
