Malice and spite, which sometimes appear as crule sarcasm, are also a treat of the Orcs in LOTR.
Northern orcs want to have 'fun' with the captured Merry and Pippin, and asked whether they might give 'good sport'; and some orcs in Cirith Ungol wanted to do the same to Frodo.
This of course only means that they reveled in their cruelty, but the goblins of the Misty Mountains do as well. Orc humour <img src=wink.gif ALT="
