:Brett McKay: "So an aspect of wit is there has to be another person to understand the witty remark, right? If you say something witty and no one gets it, like, are you actually being witty?"
James Geary: "That's a very relevant question for me because I often say something that I think is funny and nobody gets it. You're right. Wit needs witnesses. It's like if a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, does it make a noise? I think in the case of wit, it probably does not because wit does require wit." 1
