GQ released a list of the "15 worst dressed men in tech," which is a bit like shooting fish in a barrel; engineers are hardly known as fashion plates. Indeed, the magazine was so overwhelmed with badly dressed techies it left a few people off its list.

Ben Huh has one of the best names in tech. He also runs the lucrative Cheezburger Network meme factory. Now, he's made a public gambit for Reddit, the popular linkdump currently locked in combat with owner Conde Nast.

After "rather lengthy negotiations" to sell pictures for captioning by the users of I Can Haz Cheezburger, the Associated Press pulled out, citing concerns over "journalistic integrity." Replied the Cheezburger Network, "Oh plz, dey juss wanted moar moneys."

Ben Huh's media startup is focused on LOLcats and other internet animal memes. Things are less cute behind the scenes, where underpaid and overworked humans lurk, according to several company veterans who answered our recent request for information.

Ben Huh's Cheezburger Network has been crowned the largest "meme aggregator" on the internet and gleans more than $4 million in annual revenue from other people's animal pictures. So why can't Huh throw more bones to his humans?

Ben Huh ate spoiled mayonaisse; KFC inspired a foodie; and MC Hammer knows more about social media than some MBA students. The Twitterati displayed questionable taste.

Consider this: Ben Huh runs a site that takes submissions of stupid cat pictures with pidgin English captions written across them. That site, I Can Has Cheezburger, pulls about 2.2 million pageviews a day. Like the HotOrNot guys — who sold their site for $10 million earlier this year — Huh is a lucky guy who's making bank off an obnoxiously simple idea. The delicious irony: According to the above excerpt from an interview Huh gave with Internet Superstar, he's completely allergic to cats. "If I pet a cat, which I can't resist, I immediately start crying. I get itchy in the face. I look like a diseased cheeseburger guy." Ben, we're oh so sorry to hear that. The full interview is embedded below.

Seattle-based Pet Holdings, the company that runs the photo-blog I Can Has Cheezburger, posted a job listing on Monday. Company founder Ben Huh told the Syndey Morning Herald he has since received over 250 applications. Like the thought of a hungry cat watching me while I sleep, this terrifies me. Not only will Huh's new hire have to go through 7,000 captioned and 2,000 uncaptioned photos of felines each day, this person will be forced to check the grammar and spelling of that cruel and unusual punishment of the English language known as LOLspeak. No can has dignity!
