Different words. "Duh" is said to others, when they are being oblivious. It is something of an insult. "Doh" is said to ourselves, when we see how oblivious we have been. It is self-reproaching.

Wow, I'm so glad I asked. I just read that duh is from the early '60s while doh came from Homer Simpson. Never would have known. Thanks Roll, now I can get on with my day. Okay, Billy, lock it up!
