Just to be more specific on Wit, I felt when he was hurling insults, they were terribly unfunny and often painful to read.

Yeah this, I cringed hard when Wit made that stupid "Me: insults, You: in-sluts" jab. Also whenever Sanderson makes his characters use language that doesn't fit the time period, I start feeling like I'm reading anime fanfiction.

Oh hello trying-too-hard Wit quote:
“Ah, my dear Brightlord Taselin. Still engaged in your experiment to prove a maximum threshold of human idiocy? Good for you! Very empirical of you.”
“Wit, do you have to?”
“Two what, Dalinar? Eyes, hands, or spheres? I’d lend you one of the first, but—by definition—a man can only have one 'I', and if it is given away, who would be Wit then? I’d lend you one of the second, but I fear my simple hands have been digging in the muck far too often to suit one such as you. And if I gave you one of my spheres, what would I spend the remaining one on? I’m quite attached to both of my spheres, you see. Or, well, you can’t see. Would you like to?” He stood up off his chair and reached for his belt.

Oh come on, really?

“No, no assassins yet,” Wit said, amused. “I guess I’ve already got too much rear end sass of my own.”

Not a whit of wit with Wit
