How elaborate can your shrine to the self be before it becomes hazardous?

Reminds me of the time I went to visit Valve Software HQ. Oddly enough, while I was there, I caught Gabe Newell playing WoW: http://www.flickr.com/photos/timdorr/2444960854/

To date, that is still my most viewed photo on my Flickr account. Number 9? Me dressed up as a ninja: http://www.flickr.com/photos/timdorr/485704826/ sigh

I liked the picture of the building directory. First floor, tons of departments...third floor, tons of departments...second floor, one item: World of Warcraft.

Considering the scale and dynamics of that game, an entire floor is a necessity. I think at this point so much of Blizzard's revenue is tied to World of Warcraft that they have the ability to throw whatever resources are needed at it.

Library envy. The alphabetically sorted games, oh my - and more than two shelves just for "A". Very orderly, things there are.

Edit: of course I sort my games biographically...

At our small office, there's currently a four-foot snowman standing in a doorway. It makes me do a double-take when I come across it first thing in the morning before I turn the lights on.

I think I'd turn and run if I came across some of the stuff in that place in the half-light at 7am!

I can deal with the fact that the tech company I work for doesn't have anywhere near the cool stuff that Blizzard HQ does... but the grass, really? Does the grass have to be so green? I want to eat a sandwich in that grass.

Nice. Although, half way through I started scrolling faster and faster...

Nothing says "I would never want to work there" more than a giant bronze compass with corpspeak at the cardinal points and a sword wielding maniac riding a spiky cat in the center.

errr, Battleaxe.. not sword. obviously.

If only their MMO wasn't so damn addictive...I had to quit a year ago for the sake of my studies and career :)

Love to play again tho.
