I was watching CNN last night, and heard the word

BURGERLARIZED

Is this a real word, or did CNN make it up?

There is a town in Pennsylvania called Mechanicsburg. I know this as I wrote to someone from there today.

You think they could come up with something better.

They have quite a few good place names Amish Pennsylvania, like Bird-In-Hand, Paradise and of course Intercourse where the film Witness was filmed.

i think the yanks, yet again, have perverted the English language, and the word 'burgled'.

They`ve bastardised our burgled into burgerlarised the turd burgling bastards.

My American missus is well amused by the word burgled.
As am I with such gems as "winningest" [person or team with most wins]?
Quite a few food items over here have the instructions on them saying "cook until desired doneness"
They just make shit up to sound educated. :lolol:
