Made me look up the etomology of TWIT.

To wit:

Old Saxon witi, Old Norse viti "punishment, torture;" Old High German wizzi "punishment," wizan "to punish"...

Ergo to be polite at the 'Restaurant de les Gaspilleur', served by, pardon the redundancy, a supercilious French waiter:

'Ah, Sir Wizzi of Scotney in Kent, we have a table reserved for you and one other guest: a Mr. Hunter Biden, perhaps you've heard of him?'
