When you're about to do a payment and the payment form is loaded without an SSL connection/certificate... Come on, it's 2017...3

That moment when you are testing the product with the PM and you remember all the bugs that happened and all you can think is that you don't trust this abomination

I just hate it when an update for an app is available and there's no changelog. Seriously, tell us what this update is about!5

Client sends me support email concerning the CMS.
There's not enough details to go on, esp. browser info, so I ask her to fill out a support ticket.
She does, but doesn't enter any browser info, AND mistypes her email address so I have to correct it to reply to the right email.
I send her to whatbrowseramiusing.co and ask her to send the info to our support email address.
She emails support directly with these words: "I am using Google bowser".
I reply: click "Send to my designer" on whatbrowseramiusing.co and I give her exact steps to fill out the three form fields
She replies: "There is no 'Send to my designer', I only get the option to buy the domain."
I'm like "Whut?!" Did you mistype the URL? Why don't you click the link in the email? (Paraphrase)
This time I get an official email from whatbrowseramiusing.co, telling me that the client is using Safari 5.0.5. Which is five years old.
At that point I replied and said we really can't support this older browser, and included a link to the Firefox download page.7 -
Picked up a legacy site to re-build, turns out just adding:
'?admin=1'
to the query string gave you full admin rights to the entire site without having to authenticate. The site was live for 2 years.3 -
Knowing that yours is probably the last job that will be automated, followed only by complete annihilation of humanity by artificial intelligence..5

Most embarrassing dev moments:
Many years ago before I knew anything about javascript minification, I opened a .min.js file and thought "wow the guy who wrote this must be insanely smart"2
