Cloudamize CEO and former Philly Startup Leaders president Bob Moul took to Twitter this Thursday and fired off a string of comments seemingly directed at investors’ perception of the local tech community.

Though it’s unclear what triggered the string of tweets, the messages came a week after First Round Capital cofounder Josh Kopelman dared Philly entrepreneurs to “choose bigger ideas” during an open house at Curalate’s HQ.
This Wednesday, a panel of investors gathered at the 2016 Angel Capital Association Summit said Philly needed more success stories to encourage local investment.

Reached by Technical.ly for further comment on what triggered the tweetstorm, Moul said, in a succinct email:
“lol – just midday musings over a margarita :-)”
