Will Ferrell did not appreciate it when a stranger told him he’s “no Larry David,” the Saturday Night Live alum revealed on a new episode of the podcast Happy Sad Confused.

Ferrell was heading to the bathroom in a restaurant when a woman approached him. “She’s like, ‘You’re very funny,’” the comedian recalled. “And I’m like, ‘Well, that’s very nice of you.’ She’s like, ‘But you’re no Larry David.’ And I go, ‘Oh, well, yeah,’ I kind of chuck, ‘Are you kidding me?

He’s one of the best.

He’s a king.

He’s a king.’ She’s like, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah.’ Anyway, she goes to the bathroom.

I go to the men’s room.”

But the interaction didn’t end there.

Ferrell said they exited their respective bathrooms at the same time, and the woman picked up right where she’d left off.
