Why do people record fake guitar covers?

There's this guy in my class who's pretty annoying. He overheard a conversation I had with another classmate about practicing the guitar and the next day...he uploads this guitar cover.

He started complaining about how his fingers bled from playing that song...

I found the actual guitar cover. If he was gonna steal someone else's guitar cover...don't use the first video that pops up on YouTube when you search Darkwing Duck guitar. :/

I understand why people play Guitar Hero/Rock Band. I even understand why people play the air guitar. I just don't understand what drives a person to make a fake guitar video and claim it as their own. :(

On a side note, Darkwing Duck rocks!

I think some people are stuck in the "it's fine as long as you don't get caught" stage of ethical development.

I don't know how your fingers could bleed by playing something like that, on the other hand.

This is actually really funny. I'd almost be half convinced it was a troll attempt if you didn't personally know him lol.

His avatar is from the game War of the Genesis III. Looks awesome but I don't see it being popular enough here in the U.S. :/

I walked into class today and he motioned for me to come over. I knew it was about all the dislikes to his fake guitar cover. Here's our conversation.

Douchecanoe: Dude, check how many views I got since I uploaded the cover? That's awesome but I don't get why I got so many dislikes...

Me: It's because your cover is fake.

Douchecanoe: It's not fake!

Me: You don't even have your instrument cable hooked up...

Douchecanoe: It's because it's hooked up from the back!

Me: ...

Douchecanoe: Forget this! I'm not gonna post anymore guitar video if people are gonna be this critical...

Me: Dude, at least give credit to the guy you stole the cover from...or pick someone who isn't the first video that pops up when you search "Darkwing Duck Guitar"

Douchecanoe: I used his video but it's me playing!!!

Me: Do you even know what you're saying? I bet you don't even know what kind of guitar you're playing with...

Douchecanoe: It was a gift! I don't know the brand or type of guitar!

Me: Sigh...you know what a pinch harmonic is?

Douchecanoe: No, what is that?

Me: If you need to ask, you don't know how to do them. The so-called cover you posted had several pinch harmonics...

Douchecanoe: ...

Me: ...

Douchecanoe: Forget this! I'm gonna stick to only reviewing games!

Me: ...

What a short music career on YouTube he had...

He should just claim it's a metaphor, like this intelligent fellow:

(this is regarding women constantly comparing bodies/looks)

YouTube guy: Either it is part of the feline nature to insist in their thoughts or, it is women being raised that they HAVE to be independent in thought. Either way, men's thoughts are a moot point because popular media portrays most men, particularly family men as morons. The Simpsons, Family Guy, etc... I love them all, but they portray women as smarter and men as dumb.

Has this come back to bite women in the ass? Maybe women cannot accept opinions of men because of this.

Me: ...."feline" means pertaining to cats. "feminine" means pertaining to women.

Guy: Uh... the "feline" thing was supposed to be a metaphor...

And then I realized that the chord progression from Chrono Cross's Another World is the same progression as the chorus from Peace of Mind by Boston, and life was never quite the same.
