What would be one thing that you would find at the same time to be real funny and real embarrassing if it was done to you on purpose by someone close to you?
Tons of things, actually. Like my dad picking me up from school in a shitty old car in front of my friends. Or my friend pointing out loudly in public that I had a tomato sauce stain on my mouth from the food we were just eating. Or my girlfriend showing our friends a video of me being stupid when drunk. Fun and harmless.
Spare me the stupid lectures and stop assuming the worst. I did not say I wanted to ruin her life or pull a cruel prank. I also don't intend to be completely joyless and uptight, because my relationship would be over very quickly.

Yeah, the responses you're getting are pretty peak Lemmy. People who lack imagination and sense of humor, just ready to assume the worst.
Since I, too, am not in a joyless relationship, you can have this one that has worked for me: mispronounce really obvious things when you're together in public where others can hear you. For example, once while perusing the cocktail menu at a bar I noticed a drink on the menu called "The FDR." Now, I know how that's pronounced, but I decided that when the waitress came back I would see if I could remain completely straight-faced while ordering "the fidder." I announced my intention and my partner was like "No, you will not."
So, of course, I had to.
I pulled it off. The waitress corrected me, and I acted like I had just learned something. But the point wasn't the waitress (who probably went back to the bar with the best story to tell about the dumbass at that table over there). It was about my partner who, for about five seconds, probably wanted to die.
10/10 comedy, would recommend, would do this kind of thing again (and have).

This is great! Reminds me of the guy who was making his girlfriend laugh in IKEA by using furniture puns
