In slightly less extreme cases, Bob will comment on how stupid the [[WhoWritesThisCrap ''line'']] is rather than personally calling himself stupid. Another variation involves Bob not repeating the previous statement at all, instead opting for "I can't ''believe'' I just said that" or "Why did I just say that?"
