Which style of wizarding humour do you enjoy the most?
There are many different kinds of humor in the Harry Potter series. From Fred and George's pranks, to Harry's sass. There are funny situations that play out in the books, and a lot of chaos that leads to humor. Sarcasm is used in many different situations, and a number of characters use witty dialogue. And other kinds of humor as well.
What is your favourite style of wizarding humor? Why do you enjoy it? And what is your favourite example of it in the series?

However, I will always have a soft spot for witty remarks Not necessarily sarcasm as sometimes it is frustrating as a reader to come across a character constantly being sarcastic {I see sarcasm as someone making a mockery of something and not at all being helpful}, especially in serious situations where things are tense. What I love about witty remarks is that they display cleverness in a quick thinking manner and they are not meant to offend anyone.
One of my favorite things about the books is Harry’s knack for witty remarks and sarcasm. And witty humor in general. “Just then, Neville caused a slight diversion by turning into a large canary” (or something to that effect) also deserves an honorable mention. I really appreciate when a line in a book can surprise a laugh out of me.
And I also agree with Ali; the Weasley twins’ pranks leading up to their departure in OotP were top-notch.
