I'm very bubbly and outspoken, I'm also very sarcastic and often make a lot of jokes, recently people have started calling me names such as "ditzy" or "stupid" and it's starting to become very annoying. I speak multiple languages, take AP courses, get good grades and I am also very attentive. I have never before been called these names until recently. I feel like because I'm always joking around and telling funny stories and being very sarcastic, people started to view me as an airhead. I am extremely annoyed by these comments especially whenever we talk about a serious topic and I comment on it they say things like "wow that was impressive, good job" in a sarcastic manner or whenever I come up with an answer that no one else could figure out they make comments such as " wow youre the ditzy one and you fifured it out, i feel dumb now". What should I do to stop this?

dont worry.
following steps may help you:
you can stop saying jokes which will hurt your friends
otherwise you must reduce saying jokes
Don't be sarcastic. Raise your eyebrows as a greeting or as recognition of something. Witty expressions are valued when done well. Learn off others who are good at expressing witty things and understand what's attractive and what's not attractive about it. Make sure you still remain honest.
Listen attentively and wait for a chance to add to the conversation with something relevant to the topic. Do it out of interest, not if you're trying to prove something socially. Don't stray or steer the topic; let it flow naturally. Your attentiveness and awareness of the conversation will improve the perceptions of those around you.
Speak with confidence and talk clearly and with pride, but not conceit
SORRY, IF U FEEL ANY THING WRONG ABOUT MY MESSAGE.
