Amazon HQ in Seattle, WA looks like a dick and balls too.

Source: I live in Bell Town Seattle a few blocks away, yes that is a real picture of their HQ that I took myself.

I've been in the Bezos balls. (Anyone seen the old Woody Allen sex movie?) Neat but no good reason for them to be balls. It's just a climate controlled botanical garden.

I'll also note that the place is jam packed with staff that constantly ask you if you have any questions. Well... I asked questions and no one had any clue. Great job.

There's also a not great coffee bar inside. Underwhelming.

fellow seattloid here, thankful I don't have to see dickrocket jeff's faceted bollocks often. I used to spend loads of time in SLU but these days it's kinda a sterile wasteland.

belltown on the other hand continues to remain Seattle's finest open air insane asylum!

Capital Hill has been on a steady decline ever since they removed the mystery soda vending machine.
