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!"
<MARTA walks out of room>

grand mistake

It's a term for a mistake so bad that it could change views from others permanently. Something you should most certainly not do, and you should know not to do it, but you do it thinking it's okay. Often used in sports to describe some mistakes prospects make. If a prospect make routine mistakes he should go on to have a good career. If a prospect makes grand mistakes- mistakes professional players do not make, he is going to be cut real soon and is just not able to develop into a star.

retards mistake 

A 'retards mistake' is when someone surprisingly do something good, great or extraordinary even though everybody expected differently.

You expect a retard to do something retarded but if the retard do good. It must be a mistake...

The expression is from 'Life', a movie starring Martin Lawrence and Eddie Murphy.
The example given in 'Life', is when 'Can't get right' (Bokeem Woodbine) to everybody's surprise hit the ball during a baseball game. Everybody thought he was retarded, but he was just a mute...
"-George Bush just talked two minutes without any mispronunciation or nonsense coming from his lips.

-That must be a rare example of a retards mistake."
