Usually I don't find Ana's sense of humor in any way actually funny.
But every few hundred pages she makes a genuinely good joke.
For instance, after she thoroughly reads Christian's contract, she sends him...yes, you guessed it, kids- an email!

Okay, I've seen enough.
It was nice knowing you.

I don't think it's "hugging myself" worthy. But think about how funny that was on Christian's end. He treats the littlest of upsets like he, personally, is at DEFCON 1 .
I imagine it went something like this:
"(reads aloud to himself) I've seen enough...Nice...NIIIIIICE knowing me...? WHAT THE----
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (a la Darth Vader in Revenge of the Sith)
FUUUUUCK MEEEEEEEE HOW WILL I LIVE WITHOUT COMBUSTING HER PANTIES DAILY?
HER CLEAR BLUE EYES ARE MINE NO LONGER???? HOW WILL I RUN THIS OPERA HOUSE?!?!?!
***PUSHES ALL THINGS OFF DESK***
*Calms down*
*but not for long*
***all his secretaries are running around after him...he pushes them all into each other- "FUCK OFF YOU ARYAN FREAKS" ***
***RUNS TO BATHROOM. TEARS SINK OUT OF WALL***
***He stares long and hard into the mirror. "YOU GOTTA RALLY, CHRISTIAN. YOU CAN DO THIS. (paces around for hours. 'aryan freaks' pace outside restroom, skipping their sushi and diet cokes for the day.)****
****(after 4 hours and 13 minutes) BY GEORGE, I'VE GOT IT! I'LL HAVE SEX WITH HER! (does some dancing of his own to some ancient opera. he prefers dancing before sex, not after)
***Rallies. Teleports to subject's apartment. Seduces. She's weak. She succumbs. Problem solved.****

That's how every problem seems to be solved in this little trilogy.
