I've used this joke IRL with our cats. There's another one for dogs:

A guy and a dog walk into a bar. The bartender says, "hey, you can't bring a dog in here."

The guy says, "this is no ordinary dog. He's a talking dog."

Bartender says, "yeah? Prove it." The guy turns to the dog and says, "What's on top of the building?" And the dog says "Roof! Roof!"

Then the guy says, "How does a brick feel?" The dog says "Rough! Rough!"

The guy then says, "Who was the greatest ballplayer of all time?" The dog says "Ruth! Ruth!"

They are thrown out of the bar.

When they're out on the street, the dog turns to the man and says, "So, you think I should have said DiMaggio?"

I'm surprised you weren't with that joke. speaking from experience, i love my lame jokes. (and I'm not totally stealing this one...not at all.)

Lame jokes can be presented in a funny way. Delivery is important. My favorite method is "matter of fact" like I am telling a normal story about usual things. Catches the recipient off-guard and the joke lands much more betterer.

it all comes down to delivery and timing. and maybe a healthy amount of booze.

I think you over estimate your delivery there

Or this classic very dark joke: How do you make a cat sound like a dog? You pour gasoline on the cat and light it on fire. WHOOF

How do you make a dog sound like a cat? Push the dog through a buzz saw. MEEOOWW
