Welcome to our lobby! Giraffes are plentiful.
The is the area we lovingly call East Berlin.
Yes, we use patio umbrellas inside. The skylight is a harsh beast.
This is West Berlin.
This is where I sit, along with the community team, platform team and Android team.
Here's that potato that's rotting on my desk.
I have a problem: http://imgur.com/gallery/EB3Dr
Working from the couch is sometimes preferred to working from a desk.
Bryn's desk is by far the best dressed.
It's full of action figures and cool stuff. His Imgur valentine decorated it even more on the day this photo was taken.
Our conference rooms are named after Imgur jokes, programming jokes, or Star Wars & scientist references.
Important business going on.
http://i.imgur.com/6wGCVmv.jpg
This is Westeros, the quiet zone.
Perfect for naps or those moments when you don't want to see anyone.
Enter the Smash Room!
This little nook is dedicated to some of the most cut throat Super Smash Bros. tourneys you'll ever encounter.
Ping pong is another favorite.
Our walls are decorated with gifts and art sent to us by Imgurians.
You guys are so talented!
We also like to be reminded of our company core values.
We're always learning.
Everything is an iteration.
Give more than you take.
Communicate often.
Be humble.
Work hard, party hard.
Lunch time is the best time.
We sit at a giant family-style table.
Bye, everyone! Thanks for stopping by.

Now I really wanna work there... haha

Thank you everyone at Imgur for this glorious haven you have built. Here's to another 7 years!

West Berlin is the Best Berlin. (Don't tell East I said that.)

Does anyone get in trouble for wasting too much time on Imgur, or is that a prerequisite.

You can never waste too much time on Imgur.

I wonder if the East Berliners ever try to defect.

I used to be in West Berlin. Then they split me up from my loved one and sent me to East Berlin. They could not block our love. :'(

In that case, I'm calling the other meaning of "dubs on guy who gets blackout drunk at the wedding."

An Imgurian sent a banana plant to our office yesterday and I have no idea how to keep it alive. Might need you.
TheGingerBeardedBiologist
Water, some nutrients and lots of light. FYI, it is radioactive, probably a clone of most other bananas and has too many chromosomes.
