Sarcasm comes from the Latin 'to tear flesh'. It is designed to be hurtful and is not the same as being facetious. Some people mistake the two.
-Sarcasm: A cutting, often ironic remark intended to wound. A form of wit that is marked by the use of sarcastic language and is intended to make its victim the butt of contempt or ridicule.
Example: You accidently drop a glass of milk. Someone close by says, "Smart move, braintrust!"
-Facetious: Playfully jocular. Humorous. facetious
adj : cleverly amusing in tone; "a bantering tone"; "facetious remarks"; "tongue-in-cheek advice" [syn: bantering, tongue-in-cheek]
Example: You accidently drop a glass of milk. Someone close by says," I understand milk is good for hardwood floors. Something about the calcium making a good polish."

Most people only seem to find it funny when they're using it. When someone else uses it, it's suddenly offensive to them.
