What about when they tumble off the dragon and Ron says

"'Well, I don't know how to break this to you,' said Ron. 'but I
think they MIGHT have noticed we broke into Gringotts.'" (p. 548)

or Krum saying what's the use of being an international quidditch
star if all the good looking girls are taken

or Percy "'Hello Minister!' bellowed Percy, sending a neat jinx
straight at Thicknesse, who dropped his wand and clawed at the front
of his robes, apparently in awful discomfort. 'Did I mention I'm
resigning?'" (p. 636)

Or Crabbe "what's a die-dum?" P. 629

AS has been mentioned before, Ron and Hermione's back and
forth "always the note of surprise.."

Arthur rebuilding Sirius' motorcycle and hiding it from Molly in the
midst of everything...

People throwing food through the windows of Hogwarts into Grawp's
mouth...

McGonagall marshalling the desks and shouting "charge"

Peeves' little ditty at the end "We did it, we bashed them, wee
Potter's the one, and Voldy's gone moldy, so now let's have fun!"
(American edition, p. 746 DH), and then Ron saying:
"'Really gives a feeling for the scope and tragedy of the thing,
doesn't it?' said Ron......"
