''Okay, I was ignorant. I did something stupid. I got overeager or ahead of myself. I didn't realize the implications of my action, or I seriously thought I wouldn't screw this one up. I'm sorry. But please, don't hold it against me... I was Just Trying To Help.''
Not only is this a handy pre-defined message, it's also a [[Stock Phrases|stock phrase]] commonly used by characters, e.g. young kids in cartoons after their innocent attempt to help out causes a series of [[Disaster Dominoes]]. Another common use of this is when someone is on the wrong end of a [[Rant-Inducing Slight]] or [[Minor Insult Meltdown]] as after [[Stop Helping Me!|trying a little too hard to help.]]
