100K Memes Dataset

Hi! This is a massive collection of 100,000 haha (un)funny meme images packed into a 15GB .7z archive. Think of it as a time capsule of internet culture that was used to create that "top 100000 memes" video on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D__PT7pJohU).

What's Inside?

This is basically a huge dump of memes collected over two days from:

  • Various existing meme datasets
  • About 50,000 images manually scraped from VK.com
  • A mix of English and Russian memes

The images are simply numbered (like 1.jpg, 3453.jpg) without any descriptions or captions (and yes, some might be broken - that's the nature of bulk downloads)

Can I Use It?

Absolutely! The whole point of memes is sharing, so here's what you can do with it:

  • Train your AI models
  • Making fun of r/ComedyCemetery like memes from 2015 (lol)
  • Create your own meme projects
  • Whatever else you can think of!

Just one tiny request: when you use the dataset, drop a message in the Community section on Hugging Face. I'd love to know what cool stuff you're building!

Technical Details

Structure

  • One big .7z archive
  • ~100,000 images
  • Mixed formats (jpg, png, etc.)
  • Sequential numbering
  • No captions or metadata
  • Raw and unfiltered

Collection Process

It was pretty simple:

  • 2 days of intensive collection

  • Quality varies wildly
