It can be due to a variety of factors such as poor upbringing. Having a history of being treated rudely by others can lead some people to have a total disregard for others. Some have poor self esteem and by treating others poorly it makes them feel better about themselves. Some people have poor coping/stress management skills and this leads them to be rude and impatient with others. In the case of rude woman, some get bad PMS which can cause them to lash out at others (no offense, ladies but it is the case for some woman).
A person who is chronically rude may also possibly have a mental illness such as antisocial personality disorder which is characterized by the lack of regard for the moral or legal standards in the local culture, marked inability to get along with others or abide by societal rules,Sense of entitlement; unremorseful; Apathetic to others; Unconscionable behavior; blameful of others; Manipulative and conning Sometimes called psychopaths or sociopaths.

They're most likely unhappy with their lives. Their unhappiness get transformed into a bad attitude. However, they may not know how rude they're being. I used to work with a girl who said everything was "Stupid" and she never smiled. When our boss told her about her bad attitude and the persona she was reflecting she said she had no idea.
Now, if you're talking about people here on Answers, it's most likely that they're joking or sarcastic. There are some people who are consistently mean spirited, though. Good luck with whomever you're dealing with!

Besides what everyone else has said, it could be irritability which might have a physical cause. If it is you, talk to your doctor.

they may feel bad about themselves or have a low self esteem and they need to make themselves feel better by putting others down.
