Summary

This quote humorously highlights the speaker's perception of their lack of respect within their marriage. By making a toast to their wife on her birthday and affirming her as the best woman a man ever had, the speaker expected to receive acknowledgment and respect from their wife. However, it backfired when even the waiter, who is typically neutral, joined in the humorous sentiment. This quote suggests a disconnect between the speaker's expectations of respect and the reality of their situation, emphasizing the humor in the lack of recognition they receive even in simple gestures.
