Why are some people with Asperger's perceived as being extremely sarcastic?

Basic thing to remember is that many High Functioning Autistics [ Asperger's] are terrific mimics. This said a learn reactive behaviour is established to deal with something.  The flip side is that once learned they do not know that the circumstances have now changed thus the called for reaction is meant to be different.

A challenge for parents, siblings, extended family and other stakeholder in the community is to prepare the HFA for certain new behaviours, what they are, what they might look like, ride with that person as they negotiate the behaviour and eventually had over the 'rudder' as they have traversed the
actions and reactions.

Each step is built upon and bridged over with help.... constants, backing and familiarization.  Takes years. Sometimes it is best for the person to take control and escape the rat race.  Go somewhere where they are not judged as harshly.  Which is part and parcel as to why many person outside the herd mentality actually head towards the internet.

So there you have it.  

If the HFA understands that sarcasm is part of them not coping, or coping wrongly and is also a coping mechanism for or to bullying [ bigger picture aspect] they will become familiar with cause / consequence, act/ react and other balancing aspects of the behaviour.  Replacing one action with another more appropriate one.

Hope this explains itself, is helpful and answers the question as fully as possible with such a wide spectrum of Autism available for someone to be within.

 Often times A high Functioning Autistic will not understand a limitation where they excel.  If they do not excel they simply block things out. Partially this is a blocking mechanism and avoids emotional or mental overload.  Considering  "normal" people as "Stupid" when they miss details that that High Functioning Aspie's will not miss a detail.

Once again action replays will get int he way od real life issues.   The struggle in real life situations is easy to walk away from. You sit in front of the computer and become absorbed through the flashing lights and your ability to control understand and conceptualise.  Finally, years of real life struggles are transferred into gaining ground in new endeavours online.  You have escaped that rat race.

Contact me should you need any more assistance with these endevours.

 Congratulations
