Twitter Haiku Bot (@MakeBadHaiku)
BadHaikuBot is twitter bot that transforms a user specified tweet into a BAD haiku. The bot utilizes Tweepy, a python library used to access the Twitter API and another python library [SyllaPy] to analyze the syllables of each word. Once each word of the tweet is analyzed, the bot creates a Haiku following the rules of haiku (Proper sentence structure is not followed since random words are chosen based on occurence and how many syllables are required)
