Silmarillion humour? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Homm, homm, my first post. Though I've been watching this forum for a long time.

Well, I see you've already found almost everything I think to be humour.

Though there is nothing funny in Turin's tale when Gurthang(is it Gurthang) is speaking to him, I must say that a speaking sword is something weird.

One of the best "jokes" is of course Aulë's "Nonetheless they will have need of wood", as Sharku said. And "Not the first" too.

But I don't think there is any humour what is meant to be humour.
