KJ’s got “Man Hands”

Ahem. Some guys like that in a woman.

Very surprised she didn’t give any equity to management...

Well, if you post lots of semi-nude pictures of yourself on Instagram, maybe millions of people will want to buy the makeup you’re wearing.

OK fine, but I'm going to have trouble convincing my sister to make a sex-tape for the internet, to give me a platform.

Kendall was born with it. But Kylie is the richer.

Somewhat related, I recall a science fiction story from years ago that (as a very minor plot point) mentioned a crook who managed to digitally steal a tiny fraction of a penny from each and every bank transaction in the continent of Africa (they had low tech and didn’t detect such minor losses). The guy made trillions and basically collapsed Africa.

They stole that idea from the movie "Superman III" or vice versa. Richard Pryor played a computer programmer who did that at his company, got rich and caught the attention of the bad guy who made him reprogram weather satellites to create really bad weather (yeah, it's a really dumb movie). The movie "Office Space" had a subplot about stealing that idea from Superman III to get back at the company they worked for.

Kardashian was the man seen carrying Simpson’s garment bag the day that Simpson flew back from Chicago. Prosecutors speculated that the bag may have contained Simpson’s bloody clothes or the murder weapon.

I was thinking of marketing pruducts this way, but mine are designer hemorrhoid creams.

Except for the lips, I think most of the difference is makeup and Photoshop.

she has leveraged her assets to gain both fame and money.”

Yup. She has both and she is 100% dependent on venture capitalists. Thus, her products are shallow and boring just like Kim.

Same premise in the movie Office Space where the characters discuss the Superman movie plot! Lol!

“Didn’t you read the article?” she says in jest. Kylie Jenner invested her own modeling earnings as her startup funds. She is sole owner. She pays her mother a management fee, pays the Internet vendor, pays the product developer/manufacturer.

She’s not dependent on anything but the tastes of her customer base. If trout-lips go out of fashion, she can get out of the lip-color business and into some other hustle ... or live on her dividends, if she’s investing sensibly.

"Same premise in the movie Office Space where the characters discuss the Superman movie plot!"

And it turns out that the Superman III plot was taken from a scam known as "salami slicing".

Stealing amounts so relatively small, that they add up.
