I'll be honest, I assumed Verbal Tic was just for one of two words, but the other examples fit.

I think Flexo would also fall under "Just Joking" Justification, in that he'll blatantly insult people to their face and then laugh and say he was just kidding. Unlike Bender, who just insults people to their face.

I didn't write any of that.

Seconding Verbal Tic overlapping with "Just Joking" Justification in Flexo's case. Verbal Tic does mention it can be a phrase (and I'd take that to also cover variations on a phrase) rather than just a single word or sound.
