Goodreads asked Bill Patterson:

Can you tell us a two-sentence horror story?

Bill Patterson "Hey, Larry!" I said enthusiastically to the most important person in the room, in front of hundreds of family and friends, eager like a young buck to make a great impression on a person who could help me get started fast in a new career. Offering a mellow, sad smile, he replied curtly, "My name is Ernie, Larry is the guy who got arrested and fired last week."
