That's exactly what I thought too, I first heard the word in an Offspring song:
That car looked so tempting, so easy to drive / Just like that apartment that you burglarized
I thought the songwriter had invented the word to make the rhyming work. I couldn't believe it the first time I saw it in a serious context.
I normally find it pretty tiresome when Brits get all snooty about Americanisms (getting rid of all those redundant 'u's was a good idea!). But "burglarized" just sounds ridiculous.
