Its actually 'Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit'.
It's alledged Oscar Wilde gave this quote, although it doesn't appear in any of his writing.
The correct form is "wit's end", the noun "wit" is singular, possessive. The end of your "wit".

It is not. The pun is the lowest form of humor._______________I think the line is something like: Puns are the highest form of humor and the lowest form of wit. The implication would be that while puns may be very funny, other humorous uses of language, rhetoric and logic can be much more interesting, surprising and intellectually engaging. Given a choice, and the intellectual chops, most would choose to be known as wits rather than humorists or comedians. Think of people like Dorothy Parker, Mark Twain, George Bernard Shaw and Oscar Wilde.Sarcasm in its own right isn't often humorous. It wounds the victim and degrades the originator. But in the hands of a gifted wit, it can be nothing less than inspiring; even the target would be powerless to do anything but accept an insight and join in the laughter. A very popular form of humor is sarcastic dolts who consider themselves to be wits. Now That's entertainment.
It is a form of humour that is bitter or scornful. A sardonic grin or laughter for example
The quote "Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, but the highest form of intelligence" is often attributed to Oscar Wilde.

When someone says "worst puns ever," they are likely referring to puns that are not clever, funny, or well-executed. These puns may be cringe-worthy or simply not make sense in the context they were used.
Sarcasm is a type of humor that relies on irony and mocking others, often at their expense. While some may consider it lowbrow, others appreciate its cleverness and sharp wit. Ultimately, the perception of sarcasm's quality depends on personal preference and context.
