The phrase “mistakes were made” is kind of a half-joke in like a legalese sense.
When I, say, go to my family’s 4th of July party and light off a mortar firework without first putting it in a tube, thus endangering everyone’s lives by setting off an explosion that was meant to occur in the sky, where people aren’t, I can say “mistakes were made.”
Here I am admitting to the presence of a mistake, but not that *I* was necessarily the one to cause it. That could have been anybody who was me, after all.
But I’m not the only one out here who has to acknowledge that something has gone wrong. Just look at these poor souls via Reddit.

This is the universe’s way of letting you know, gently, that it hates you.

1.Raw doors
Sorry, honey, I don’t swing that way.
GF was so proud of herself for buying raw doors, cutting in the hinges and drilling the knob hole. I was the bearer of bad news that she did it upside down.
