A Tweet By Chris Evans About Patton Oswalt Sent Martin Shkreli Into A Fiery Twitter Rant

Remember when pharma-douche Martin Shkreli engaged Patton Oswalt on Twitter and lost? Nothing but a good ol’ Twitter feud instigated by the same guy silenced by Late Show host Stephen Colbert, right? Oh Patton, those were the da… Oh wait, that was Monday. And to the surprise of no one, Shkreli is up to it again less than 48 hours later — this time with Captain America: Civil War star Chris Evans.

But hey, at least Patton appreciated the Captain’s salute:
