You know when you watch a friend do something so stupid you wish you were never born so you never had the chance to see it? That’s the feeling that eclipsed us when we saw Pizza Hut’s latest social networking snafu: the uncool but cool pizza delivery guy.

Even if you forgive the use of Incubus’ Drive, the pretentious article-preceding-name (The Ted – why not go all the way and call him The Tedster?) and the awkward “Who I’d like to meat?” joke, you have yet to account for gratuitous use of words like “babe-licious” and “par-tay.”

Let’s not forget the use of crawly come-ons like “In a court of girls, I’m the prisoner, not the judge … and I’ve been very, very bad.” The page in general is so wince-worthy that the very thought of pizza afterward made us throw up in our mouths.

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
