I have done this too. Shit happens.
One of my co-workers used to write
UPDATEstatements backwards limit then where etc, to prevent this stuff, feels like a bit of a faff to me.I always write it as a select, before turning it into a delete or update. I have burned myself too often already.

And then last night had an error that led me back near this code and stupidly thought "hey it'd look neater if those numbers were in order"
