I read somewhere about a fluther HQ. What exactly does that mean and where is it?

It is the secret magical jellyfish lair. Home to dr.J and a host of unicorns and pixies.
Legend has it that those who make the epic journey will be clothed in pancakes and annointed in guacamole and will lead a life of splendor with their own jellygodmother guide watching over them.
It also could be the main office in San Francisco where the staff works and plays.
That would be the office. Where the people who run fluther work. In SF somewhere. You could probably google the address if you wanted to visit.
@Dog – ROFL Love your answer :-)
@HungryGuy I have been there… <—- —brushes pixie dust off shoulder euphorically…
@Dog You’re kidding, right? I was told it was a secret bunker beneath San Francisco bay. You get there in special submarines that are designed to look like giant jellyfish. I also heard that you could visit the fluther museum, where you can actually look under the frizzer!
In addition, there is the Mods bar, serving bottomless beers and guacamole and chips. On Sunday morning, the pancakes are free.
There is also a troll cage where captured trolls are forced to read their comments aloud to a tank of jellyfish. The idea is to try to create intelligent jellyfish. Either that, or intelligent trolls. They take bets on which will emerge first.
There is also a hall of fame where jellies that have not been seen in ages have been memorialized.
Finally, you can go look at the server farm. There you will find servers gently noshing on grass and moving slowly to always keep their disk drives in the warmth of the sun.
Ok. That’s all I better tell you. I can’t tell you more or they’ll throw me in the troll cage. ;-)
@wundayatta I heard of those submarines and did attend a troll reading but spent so much time watching the floating jelly garden and the spam floggings that I totally forgot to visit the frizzer. (I also may have been dipping into the jelly wine and inhaling unicorn breath a bit too much…)

Ahem. ← That is how you get to the Fluther HQ.
@timtrueman As you know, due to poor timing this visit did not entitle me to visit the actual inner-sanctum of the orbiting mission control. Such privileges are the stuff all flutherites dream of. I do have the limited-edition Orbiting Jelly HQ lunchbox though- it makes me happy…
Just because nobody mentioned it, “HQ” stands for headquarters. I am boring. I know it. :(
Right now it seems to be ZERO!! Where is everyone????...... O. Wait. You said HQ, not IQ. Sorry.
@Dog I could close my eyes and picture all that. I love make believe.
@Dog You forgot to mention it’s also the home of the Magical Frizzer Down Under.
@YARNLADY – Whatever. He’s always wanted lily-white feet.
High Quality? That’s what I thought anyway….or did I? :¬)
But @iamthemob, when I dream of fluther, I dream of bright, shiny places where you can have ice cream (or warm rootbeer!)
Thanks, Weird Al for the rootbeer idea!
@yarnlady, that is just wrong! ;0)
