... and those jokes are not yours, and you don't give credit for the jokes you post?
I'm glad you brought up Napster. With Napster, at least the downloader understood whose music they were downloading, because the illegal ripper would include the artist's name in the file, lol. This guy is like Napster if the illegal ripper replaced the artist of every CD he ripped with his own name, and then he proceeded to get record deals as a result.
I know a lot of people who do stand-up/write comedy, and literally everyone hates this dude and every dude like him who made his living on the work of others.
In fact, I'd say it's pretty hard to *not* see why people don't like this practice. You have to willfully look away from something that's very very easy to understand.
