I sort of like these combined as (short version);

In the bar a man is sitting with his talking dog. Another guy arrives and says ‘this is amazing’ The guy says ‘well, watch this’ gives the dog some money and tells him to go and buy a newspaper and bring it back.

Quite some time goes by and no dog or paper.

They go looking and find the talking dog humping a poodle in the alley.

The dog owner says ’ You’ve never done this before’

The talking dog replies ‘You’ve never given me money before’
