The mouse droid is borderline Prequel humour as is R2-D2 toppling with a cute scream as he gets stunned by the jawas. However it's not awful, but it is dumb in my opinion. Where dumb is defined as "lacking intelligence or good judgment; stupid; dull-witted."
Leia's "walking carpet" line has always bugged me, do we even see a carpet anywhere in the trilogy? It's an instant back-to-Earth-ism for me that line. And it's not even funny. "Nerf herder"? Thank you ESB!
You're talking about stuff I clearly recall getting laughs back in 1977.
As for carpets, we don't see bathrooms in any of the movies either, but surely they must exist? ;)
