@frob, lack of error messages, or errors in my code worries me most :)
My very first funnny error was back on the time of Spectrum Z80 computers.
I've got an "Unknown DOS command", and DOS wasn't even invented yet :))
Funniest compile/link errors
At work, we tend to send around screenshots of a strange error messages whenever we encounter one.
This is my last one:

I once got an error:
"WTF? Are you kidding? I'm not even gonna look at this!"

I think it's funny when the compiler calls your code "pointless".
No. It's Humiliating!
