Sarcasm is an educated insult.
I think this question is really great. Thought provoking but subtle.

Is that a serious question or are you being sarcastic?
Only kidding.
It's only the lowest form of wit because anyone can use sarcasm, whereas other forms of wit require a bit more intelligence.

Maybe, but then surely wit is the highest form of humour?
Personally, I love it. I'd be mute without sarcasm.

No, because....
Sarcasm is proverbially described as “the lowest form of humor but the highest form of wit” (a quotation sometimes ascribed to Oscar Wilde, but untraceable).

It's only considered the lowest form of wit when someone doesn't have intelligence enough to provide a witty comeback.

Sarcasm is used for what objective? to point out some thing detrimental decrease than the guise of being valuable, or "humorous." possibly that's what's meant with the help of it being the backside variety of wit. Wit is used for what objective? To think of quickly, to respond directly, to be arranged for something. So it does kinda make sense that showing one's wit, an exceedingly valuable and worthwhile ability and skill sensible for survival and species propagation, as a gadget for demeaning somebody or some thing he/she does not believe (actual with the aid of fact it rather is distinctive extremely than incorrect) is decrease than optimal use of the flexibility. In essence, turning some thing stable (wit) around to injury somebody else or strike at them with words (sarcasm) is a foul decision frequently made with the aid of fact of disagreement or dislike. Lowest variety of wit.....wit has an greater style this is extra sensible for civilization and socialization. it rather is important evaluate the author's stance in producing those words....what replaced into going on while the word replaced into coined? we are rather stable, actual professionals, at taking the words of somebody completely out of context to in good shape our argument against the words. now's a stable time to place the words back into unique context and look into the time, place, and events surrounding the fact and look at it from yet another attitude. it ought to be in good shape on your head than responding ironically to a question approximately sarcasm. And the certainty is, it rather is frequently purely humorous to the speaker and others basically giggle to circulate alongside with him/her. actual wit is organic and high quality, and an admirable high quality. Sarcasm is a muddy, messy use of wit in a style designed to deliver some detrimental result, and frequently a miles less admirable quaility in a individual. Do you hit upon the sarcasm interior the many times used meaning of the word? Sarcasm is getting used to portray sarcasm. Kinda humorous, while ya think of roughly it!!
