# wordplay
wordplay is a twitter bot that generates rhyming jokes similar to this:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">What do you call a standard disobedience?<br>A regulation insubordination!</p>&mdash; playing with saying (@eventhenotion) <a href="https://twitter.com/eventhenotion/status/709471468527071232">March 14, 2016</a></blockquote>
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

It uses my natural language generation library [verbly](https://github.com/hatkirby/verbly) to pick words, [YAMLcpp](https://github.com/jbeder/yaml-cpp) to read a configuration file, and [twitcurl](https://github.com/swatkat/twitcurl) to send the status updates to Twitter.

The canonical wordplay handle is [@eventhenotion](https://twitter.com/eventhenotion).
