I believe it must be the last sentence of the excerpt - You hain't gut a orfiss I'd take under no circumstances
Repose in Abraham's Buzzum!" sed one of the orfice seekers.

When we need to identify the sentence that might humor, we need to spot the words that seem out of place, ridiculous, but somehow still relvant with the other part of the sentence. The humor above is used to mention that Mr. Linkin, made lot of mistakes.
