Â The idea is whether someone who isn't possessed of it, in the view of anyone, can force that view on the audience by saying their character is "witty". Â Which, yes, happens. Â If you think you're witty, and all you're doing is interjecting relatively dull and not particularly enjoyable observations, you will most likely get downplayed or frozen out of conversation. Â Which is a particular problem for people who want to play a genius, but will routinely have other players running circles around their best-applied logic in conversation.
I question the assumption, knowing that wit is culturally determined, that it is possible for somebody to be universally regarded as lacking in wit.
