British slang for a fool or a person of notably poor intelligence — someone whose wit is as thick and unyielding as a brick. The compound plays on 'brick' as a byword for denseness and 'wit' as intelligence, creating a blunt insult that implies the person's mental capacity is about as nimble as masonry. It's a fairly uncommon term, but its construction is immediately clear to anyone familiar with British insult vocabulary, slotting neatly alongside 'thickhead,' 'numpty,' or 'plonker.'
