When I was born the doctor slapped my mother.

Summary

This quote humorously suggests that the speaker was born with a temperament or disposition that caused concern or trouble right from birth. It implies that the doctor's action of slapping the mother was not due to any medical necessity but rather as a response to the challenging nature of the child. The quote playfully emphasizes the idea that the speaker has always been a bit unmanageable or mischievous, using the doctor's slap as a metaphorical expression of their seemingly innate difficult nature.
