Kjirstem :

I'm sad to hear that there will be less of the Dursley's in HBP.  I
> really like the scenes with them, nothing else in HP makes me 
laugh so much.  They just seem so over the top as to be 
unbelievable. I mean, really, who gives someone a tissue as a 
present?  Most people seem tothink they are horrible, as I do too, 
but I also think they are horribly funny.


Alla:

Well, we don't know wehethre it will be less Dursleys in HBP or not. 
We only know that Harry will have his shortest stay at privet Drive 
ever. I suppose it means less Dursleys, but who knows, maybe some 
back story will be revealed, which includes Dursleys.

Now, about them being funny. Of course, their reactions are funny 
sometimes. I said it earlier - I am not sure why such reactions 
should be mutually exclusive.

I cringe at many Snape's remarks at Harry and Neville and want to 
slap him, but I also find some of them hysterical (like your "head 
is not allowed in Hogsmead speech" or even "I see no difference" )
remark.

So, really it is perfectly fine to think that Dursleys are funny. :)
