If anyone asks for the difference between a conservative and a fundamentalist, please use this:

A conservative writes the traffic law so you may turn right on red.

A fundamentalist is the driver behind you, honking his/her horn to make you turn right on red.

With corner cops down the street if you choose wrong.
