once is an accident, twice is careless, three times is stupidity?
i have no idea the reason behind it..Maybe you can make any mistake you want one, twice is carless but to make the same mistake three times is a bit daft? As humans shouldn't we be learning from our mistakes?

no i think it means like ammmm you can get away with it once as it was purely accidental.second time round it wasnt accidental but mere coincidence that it happened and 3rdly your luck ran out!
