"Yikes! Lena Dunham isn&amp;apos;t all too pleased with Shia LaBeouf&amp;apos;s recent apology method -- and let the actor know via Twitter. Earlier this week, LaBeouf issued an apology for plagiarizing artist Daniel Clowes by hiring a skywriting team to create a 5-mile-long sign over Los Angeles.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I&amp;apos;ve always felt, utterly and unchangeably, that only sociopaths hire skywriters,&amp;quot; Dunham, 27, wrote via Twitter on Saturday, Jan. 4. Soon after, LaBeouf, 27, retweeted Dunham&amp;apos;s comment and immediately gave his two cents.\r\n&amp;quot;I don&amp;apos;t mind creating debate with thoroughly considered artistic expressions but I don&amp;apos;t want to offend with a tweet. Sorry world,&amp;quot; he wrote. &amp;quot;Im addicted to lean &amp;amp; that sh-t ain&amp;apos;t no joke. I can barely remember all the things I&amp;apos;ve done &amp;amp; said. However there&amp;apos;s no excuse 4 skywriting.&amp;quot; (Via Daily Mail, LaBeouf&amp;apos;s &amp;quot;addicted&amp;quot; comment is the same line rapper Gucci Mane tweeted in September 2013.)\r\n\r\nDunham&amp;apos;s response? &amp;quot;Vaguely recognized Shia Labeouf&amp;apos;s latest twitter apology and realized it was MINE! Touch&amp;#xE9;, Louis Stevens,&amp;quot; the Girls creator quipped. &amp;quot;Projecting a lot of rage against my 7th grade boyfriend on LaBeouf. Think this is the start of something really productive #2014.&amp;quot; (Louis Stevens is the Disney character LaBeouf played on the TV series Even Stevens from 1999 to 2003.)\r\n\r\nIn mid-December, LaBeouf got in some hot water when it was discovered that he plagiarized some parts of his short film, HowardCantour.com, by using some parts from Clowes&amp;apos; 2007 graphic novella, Justin M. Damiano. After posting a slew of apology tweets, the actor then hired skywriters on Jan. 1 to really get his message across. &amp;quot;I am sorry Daniel Clowes,&amp;quot; the sky banner read."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
