This is actually a PEBKAC problem on my end, but it amused the hell out of me. My company provides a recommendation service for online stores; you're looking at a shirt, might we recommend a better shirt or some nice pants? Without diving too deeply into my amazing code, every client gets some credentials so we can verify they're legit and determine which catalog to pull recommendations from. Well, once a couple years ago I got flustered and accidentally gave a site specializing in men's skin care the credentials for a sex toy shop. For the few minutes it was up people browsing sake-infused skin cream or 3pc shaving sets were told that they might possibly like enormous dildos or his'n'hers vibrators. Quickly and easily fixed, but rather worrisome for a minute there.
