One, it is actually a quote from someone in the store and they are repeating it here, sadly without stating who it is from.<BR/>Secondly, it is the facetious quote. In other words, 'touch this and you die'<BR/><BR/>"We've come a long way ladies"<BR/><BR/>First off, where is the comma after way? If it was present, this statement could be seen as an actual quote from someone who is commenting on the not-so-good old days when women were thrashed with a beer bottle tied to the end of a belt if they dared to wear visors?<BR/>In its absence, it would seem that this is actually the name of a group. Similar to The Foggy Bottom Boys or The Southern Electric Death Cult (who eventually shortened their name to just The Cult. Probably a good idea!)<BR/><BR/>We will assume (yes, we know what that does) that it is supposed to be there. So why is 'We've come a long way, ladies' being either quoted to us or being used as a euphemism.<BR/><BR/>If the latter, then they seem to be saying 'we are from around here'<BR/><BR/>If a quote, why are they quoting a cigarette company's logo?
