I got bored.



Idk why, but the theme I used got fucked up halfway through and I couldn't change the groupbox. I'm too tired and just woke up so I didn't feel like trying to fix it. Have fun with your chuck norris jokes :D now you can be a real mlg with quick Chuck Norris jokes. glhf
Download sauce + bin.

Oh. And I know it can be optimized. Once again, I just got bored and I just woke up. Optimize it if you like, it's like 2 lines of code :P

Optimize it if you like, it's like 2 lines of code :P

Well, if you absolutely insist...

Code

Private Function GetJoke(joke As JokeType) As String
    Using wc As New WebClient
      Return wc.DownloadString("http://api.predator.wtf/joke/?arguments=" & joke.ToString())
    End Using
End Function

Public Enum JokeType
    nerdy
    explicit
End Enum

Edit- Some suggestions:
-You've already imported your namespaces, why continue to qualify them?
-Remember to dispose your requests, responses and streams. Wrap in Using blocks.
-You're mixing between title case and camel case, always the latter for local.
-No use in catching the exception if you're going to do nothing with it.
-Parenthesize methods.

I won't pick up on the Dispose call.

Hey, you should keep naming conventions in enums as well
So capitalize those fuckers, and call tolower()
