* Justified: Bob's whole existence revolves around being funny, so that even when a serious moment comes up, the best he can do is sound like a Stock Scream.
* Inverted: Dude, Not Funny
* Bob makes a funny joke about his social skills, but due to his character and events based on him, the moment unintentionally turns out to be sad instead.
* Subverted: Narm Charm
* Double Subverted: What was Narm Charm at first, has become Hilarious in Hindsight.
* Parodied: Stylistic Suck
* Deconstructed: Bob wants to be taken seriously, but the harder he tries, the more he gets laughed at. This makes him hateful and distrustful of everyone around him.
* Reconstructed: Bob realizes that even though he's not getting the reaction he was looking for, the Narm Charm still makes his performance enjoyable for the audience.
* Zig Zagged: Bob's murder turns out to be extremely narmy, but Alice's death is extremely tragic.
* Averted: A dramatic moment succeeds in being, well, dramatic.
* Enforced: Executive Meddling demands that the scene be softened as they think it's "too scary" and it goes too far.
* Lampshaded: "Stop that laughing, I'm being serious!"
* Invoked: "I think they're taking this too seriously, so I'm going to join in as ridiculously as possible."
* Defied: "I'm not going to be funny at all here. Nope, gonna avoid all silliness. This is going to sound serious, because I am serious."
* Discussed: "If he'd be more over-the top when saying that, it would actually be rather funny"
* Conversed: "That was supposed to be dramatic? HA!"
* Intended: When Bob gets shot and dies, he makes a funny face, turning this would-have-been tragic moment into a funny one. Word of God confirms that it was intended to come off as funny. BAAAAACK.... TO......... NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!
