What are the comical passages in chapter 1-2? Why does the author include so many funny lines of dialog, most of them frightening, even in the first chapter?

Question

I really do not understand this

Besides my last post, I think Dickens likes to inject some sort of comic relief to help with the dark tension and tone of the novel.
