Snape did not "plant" the memory in the pensieve so that Harry would
see it.  He would not have assumed that it would hurt Harry; he would
have assumed that Harry would have found it funny or have cheered for
his dad.  

I think the reason this was Snape's worst memory ties back to what he
told Harry in GOF: that James thought he was better than "the rest of
us", implying that Snape was one of the crowd.  In fact, the memory
shows that James treated Snape with special derision, and that Snape
in fact was not one of any crowd, but rather the campus loner geek.
