WANT: bad code in python (for refactoring example)

[Makoto Kuwata]

Thanks Irmen and Steven,

I'm sorry that my explanation is not enough.
I'm looking for bad python code, not refactoring examples.
I can do (and want to do) refactor bad code by myself.

Is there any bad python code (or project) with proper size?

# I found a lot of bad PHP code in github, but didn't find bad Python code.

regards,
