No response yet from Lorre to the Tweet, which also included a photo of the 2007 People's Choice Award that the series won.

Back in 2011, here's what Sheen had to say about Lorre via People Magazine:

But Sheen saves his strongest words for Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre, who recently joked about Sheen. Lorre professed to having a healthy lifestyle and said he'd be mad if Sheen outlived him.

Sheen says he didn't find that funny, calling Lorre a "clown" whose real name is "Chaim Levine." (His name is actually Charles Michael Levine).

"I embarrassed him in front of his children and the world by healing at a pace that this un-evolved mind cannot process," says Sheen. "I've spent, I think, close to the last decade, I don't know, effortlessly and magically converted your tin cans into pure gold. And the gratitude I get is this charlatan chose not to do his job, which is to write."
In an interview with TMZ, Sheen continued to blast Lorre as a "stupid, stupid little man and a p----y punk that I never want to be like."

Charlie Sheen, who has starred in more than 40 feature films, catapulted to fame in such critical and commercial hits as Platoon and Wall Street.

Part Deux, The Three Musketeers, The Chase, Money Talks, Being John Malkovich, Scary Movie 3, Scary Movie 4 and The Big Bounce. He also appeared in the television movies Rated X and Good Advice.

Sheen became known to television audiences through his Golden Globe Award-winning lead role in Spin City. In 2003, Sheen was cast as "Charlie Harper" in the CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men, which was loosely based on Sheen's bad boy image. The role garnered him an ALMA Award and four Emmy Award nominations, as well as two Golden Globe Award nominations for Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series.

In 2011, Sheen set a new Guinness World Record for Twitter as the "Fastest Time to Reach 1 Million Followers," adding an average of 129,000 new followers per day.

Later in the year, Charlie kicked off his North American "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat Is Not An Option" tour, which sold out in 18 minutes to set a Ticketmaster record.

In September of 2011, Comedy Central's Roast of Charlie Sheen was watched by 6.4 million people, making it the highest-rated roast in the history of the network.

Sheen finished the year starring in the upcoming Roman Coppola movie, A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charlie Swan III.

Sheen now stars on FX's Anger Management, returning for its second season in January 2013. He recently wrapped work on Scary Movie 5, which is scheduled for release in April 2013.
