something of a triumph

Said in recognition of an ignoble, foolish, and/or unintended accomplishment, preferably one's own.
"Christmas" has an H in it, Mr Baldrick. And an R. Also an I, and an S. Also T and M and A and another S. Oh, and you’ve missed out the C at the beginning. Congratulations, Mr Baldrick! Something of a triumph, I think - you must be the first person ever to spell "Christmas" without getting any of the letters right at all.

blackened-hands triumph

Refers to where ya emerge from da garage or workshop and grinningly display yer grease/soot-covered hands for da folks waiting outside to learn da results of yer repair-efforts; da idea is dat yer "soiled but pridefully-happy" gesture indicates dat yer task was totally messy and disagreeable, but dat ya were indeed successful in yer refurbishing endeavors.
Extra points if da crowd of onlookers breaks into congratulatory applause (like da fellow passengers do in "What About Bob?" when said trepidatious Robert actually manages to ride all da way to his destination without totally freaking out) when you do yer blackened-hands triumph maneuver.
