...and then I ate the bowl

Used to take an already impressive story or anecdote and crank it up to 11. Appended to the end of said tale as a means of making it even more unbelievable. Derived from one of the greatest Tim Horton's menu items of all time, the Bread Bowl, and its associated ad campaign, which involved a bystander overhearing that Tim Horton's chili or soup was so good, the orator subsequently eats the bowl it came in; the bystander of course not knowing the bowl itself was made of bread.
Guy A: "So what did you get up to last night?"

Guy B: "Dude! It was insane. I pounded back a 40 to myself, smoked a joint the size of a jiffy marker, puked, fell in the pool, and ended up sleeping with my buddy's mom."

Guy A: "Wow, that's the craziest shit I've ever hear..."

Guy B: "...and then I ate the bowl."

Guy A: "Fuck, do you have a church I can join?"

Ate up with the dumbass

It's fairly self explainatory. It means you're beyond stupid.
I believe this phrase comes from the Texas backwoods.

Ate my balls

"Ate my balls" or "I ate my balls" is an expression in the standup comedy community, whereby a comedian goes on stage and attempts to make an audience laugh, and fails miserably, also known as "bombing."

This can be due to either:

The comedian performing the material poorly.

-Or-

An obnoxious, aggressive, or just generally shitty crowd, or rather, that the crowd and the comedian weren't meshing, weren't on the same page comedically.

The expression is used in both cases. The expression seems to be popular with, and may have originated with comedians from the East Coast, particularly Boston; Bill Burr and Jim Norton are examples of comics who frequently use the expression.
"Man this last open mic was brutal, I got up there and ate my balls in front of 20 other angry comics who looked like they were paid to be there."
