Bet Conan O'Brien didn't expect a reply from Madeleine Albright when he made a joke about her on Twitter! On Thursday, Conan tweeted [1] a silly Halloween costume idea, joking, "I picked out my Halloween costume. I'm going as 'Slutty Madeleine Albright.'" Soon after, the former secretary of state chimed in with a joke of her own, tweeting [2], "I'm considering going as hunky Conan O'Brien — but that might be too far fetched." Things just got more hilarious from there, as the pair went back and forth with a series of tweets. See the full, funny Twitter "feud" below.

.@Madeleine [6] YES - My first twitter war with a former Secretary of State! You're next, George P. Shultz!

.@ConanOBrien [8] Never get into a word war with a diplomat. We talk even more than comedians.

Damn - Whenever I go toe to toe with @Madeleine [10] Albright, she always wins.
