The YouTuber and comedian got into a war of words last May when Paul took a shot at D’Elia after he replied to one of his tweets. Paul tweeted that his upcoming vlog was going to be his last, to which D’Elia responded that it wasn’t. Trying to response, Paul said: “I’m laughing cuz now I know why your comedy career took a dive.”

However, the comedian’s response, which went viral, completely shut Logan down. “At least when my career dies you can film it and put it on YouTube,” D’Elia responded. The pair continued to go back and forth over a few tweets before the beef died down.
