Constant jokes/sarcasm
Simply put, I make a joke or sarcastic remark about everything said to me / around me. It's not unfunny or anything, that's not the problem, and it has gotten me plenty of friends - but it's hampered my ability to have a real relationship. I just see comedy in every aspect of life and can quickly make a joke out of something, and if I try to control it, I say nothing. Is it normal?

Try having actual conversations. People may think you're funny but you're not going to be taken seriously if you're just Funny Man. The Funny Man in a group is the one who cracks all the jokes and is fun to be around but without any substance. Perhaps you're a loner and don't want relationships and this is your defense mechanism or maybe you do want relationships or afraid to have one, either way, you're fine being Funny Man, but one day you're going to realize nobody really knows you and nobody really cares. You don't have to give up your humor. Just lace your humor in your conversation and you'll be thoughtful but also lighthearted.
(it just depends on the situation)
im the same way.
just be aware that in some situations people might take your jokes as you being a smart ass.
then again, maybe you're justa bit of a smartarse, if so don't worry, lots of people think it's cool :)
It drives my teacher crazy.
Lately I've been working on just chatting, and saying things sarcasticlly only some of the time, because when I'm texting/e-mailing no one knows if I'm serious or not.
You probably have OCD or something. Maybe you're one of those people with a brilliant mind but it's just restless and it's constantly making humorous observations about life (you'd really like Demetri Martin). You seem like in intelligent guy. Find out what triggers this. Talk to a counselor and if needs be, take medication. Find a way to occupy your busy mind, a way to distract it.
