Using くれる for doing something bad


Today I heard the phrase なんてことしてくれた, as in:

> 君！なんてことしてくれたんだ！

which I learned means "[Look what you've
done](http://english.mag2.com/marvin/beginner_37.html)". I thought くれる was
only used when someone does something nice for you. Is this just a set phrase,
where くれる is being used sarcastically, or are there other times you can use
くれる when someone does something you don't like?




Speaking from personal experience, I do hear the ~くれる form used this way all
the time in video games and such, and it seems to me that it does carry a kind
of sarcasm(the Japanese kind :D).

I mostly hear やってくれたな! when the opponent does something to the person, but I
seldom hear it used this way on any word besides する and やる, so I'd assume
yours is a good bet.
