For me, the game's physics engine provides some entertainment every now and then.
Together with someone else who came around coincidentally, I killed a troll (I think) some weeks ago. The troll's head fell backwards until it hit the ground, but the troll's feet stood firmly on the ground as well. So this dead troll is still standing there near the road, its body shaped like an inverted U (and with the belly up), head and feet firmly on the ground, arms hanging down limp at the sides. (Perhaps it's a bridge troll?)
On another occasion, I killed someone in a dungeon, on top of a flight of stairs. The dead one fell on top of the first stair, and just had enough momentum for his head to fall down on the second stair. The body now began gliding down the stairs very slowly, reaching the fourth or fifth step after about 20 or 30 seconds. Then, I went past, for I had something else to do in there.
And for the conversations... well, certainly the ones with the paranoid guy in one of the western cities were sometimes funny. Furthermore, about every orc is as friendly as if he/she just wanted to rip your head off (at least in the localized german version of the game). That includes shopkeepers. Sometimes I wonder how they keep their business going.
There may be other funny stuff out there for me to be found, but I've just begun Oblivion, and have not seen too much yet.

Earlier today I heard the following from one Frenzied bandit who was attacking another just as the spell was wearing off: "You're a traitor to your own race! I'm very pleased to meet you."

i havn't seen much funny in there, but probably the funniest thing i've seen in oblivion is the door spasms when you drag a corpse in a door way and close the door.

Well killing the adoring fan was funny especially when using some mods like deadly reflex.

Does Shivering Isles count because Sheogorath has the most hilarious dialogue.
"I once dug a pit and filled it with clouds or was it clowns....No I'm pretty sure it was clowns, Clouds don't smell. They taste like butter and tears.":laff:
and
"I'm so happy that I could rip out your intestines and strangle you with them"

If we're going to talk about SI them we need to include Sheo's butler Haskill. His version of the stuffy butler schtick is hilarious.

I think for me, the most funny thing in Oblivion is the effect of a short but powerful "Control Humanoid" cast on a member of an angry group of hostiles.
Though... charming a guard for the "looks like you are in some trouble. Since we're friends, I'll look the other way and pay your fine for you."-effect is a close up.
And in my current game, I'm having fun convincing the Mythic Dawn sleeper agents that they do not really want to murder me. By sneaking into their houses at night, charming them, speechcrafting them, speechcrafting them some more. It's hilarious when an Eugal Belette or Else God-Hater then deliver the "I'm so scared of that oblivion gate outside our city's walls!"-lines.

I'm playing Oblivion for the 2nd time & once again have reloaded the companion mods, Legolas & Aragorn. I didn't reload Gimli because last time that companion mod proved to be too hot-headed and ended up picking fights with characters that were supposed to be friendly! Caused me no small amount of trouble, that dwarf did!
This time around I realized (a little belatedly) that the Legolas character is a 'Light-Fingered Louie', in that after every fight I now have to search him because he steals the weapons of the enemies he's slain. (And they're 'marked' with the red hand (stolen goods) in his inventory!) The first time I searched Legolas' inventory & found a bunch of stolen weapons I was standing on the main street of the Imperial City Marketplace District. After I'd transfered the stolen weapons to my inventory I then proceeded to try to drop them onto the street to get rid of them. Bad call! The minute I dropped the first stolen weapon onto the street a guard showed up & tried to arrest me. After that I made sure that either we were in deserted areas before I started getting rid of Legolas' stolen goods, or that I could 'transfer' them into somebody else's cupboard or wardrobe!
I also tried the 'createfullactorcopy' on my horse after it was inadvertently killed in a melee, but that kind of backfired since the copy-horse was totally berserk and Legolas & Aragorn ended up just killing it all over again. :(
