#2 They do have something else in common - they are both 5' 4"

#3 That's stupid. How are her buyers supposed to know she's a woman? She should just charge more for her rocks like any guy would do.

#4 Given that Robert Downey Jr is carbon-based while Ms Briers' rocks are mainly silicon, what we have here is yet another egregious example of systemic chemical sexism. Abolish the Periodic Table now!

#6 Oh you Guys! Proving that witty repartee is alive and well here at Rantburg. Although witty repartee is something of a redundancy I'll admit.

#7 Yeah, well, like, Nobel Gases are inert supremacists man!

Slightly off topic, is it me or does the Captain Marvel story crib Green Lantern?

And if there isn't a scene in the next Avengers with America and Marvel doing a 'Captain, Captain, Captain' scene with someone in the background doing a Captain Morgan pose, I will know there is no more joy in Mudville.

#8 The same people bemoan the injustice of the "Big Business CEO's wage disparity with their employees" seem oblivious to the difference between an A-List Star's wages and that of the extras/film crew. Hypocrisy, much?

#9 "Mighty Genie! We wish we were all paid the same as the lead actress!"

*poof*
"It is done."

"Mighty Genie....why is Alyssa Malano where Scarlette Johanson used to be?"

"Alyssa Malano will work for minimum wage, as you all do now!"

"But now nobody will see the movie! We'll never work again!"

"Bwahahahaha! Now you are most equal! Bwahahaha!!"
