Orcs can be amusing too.... like at the end of TTT when Gorbag and Shagrat are carting Frodo off and talking and Shagrat says "Ah, well, you always did take a gloomy view." Come on, you're orcs in Mordor for goodness sake!... And, as Lush says, it's just great when authors stick in the moments of humorous irony at very solemn parts of the story.
