I've made a huge mistake

A phrase used often in the canceled TV show "Arrested Development". The phrase is mostly used when the characters talk to themselves after a serious of poor choices/bad events. It's used to make light of bad situations, although the characters themselves don't find it funny.

MARTA: "I was really worried about you"
GOB: "You've got nothing to worry about. We're going to be together for a long time"
MARTA: "We're family now - I'm so happy. I'm going to call the kids!"

I've made a huge mistake.

1. An understatement to utter under your breath when you botch everything.

2. Something to say when you realize your preconceptions of the situations have turned up false.

3. Something Gob might say on "Arrested Development."

GOB - "I've made a huge mistake."
