# Arghhh
not your fault and no offense to you intended, but "heaping spoonful" is one American phrase I can't get good with. Spoons cannot heap or perform any other action, since they are inanimate. INANIMATE I TELL YOU.
Come on guys, it's a heaped spoonful. You need to heap it yourself. The spoon is never going to manage it on its own.

# but "heaped spoonful" doesn't sound as good as a name
heap heap heap!

also: it's not actually the spoon that's heaping, it's the spoonful

But if we're playing the "words I don't like" game, then burglarize.

Which should of course be "burgulate".

Also: misusing momentarily. Planes that take off "momentarily" are not going to get anywhere.

# I think it's "of a" that bothers me most.
It's somewhat of a common thing for Americans to say.

Maybe it's not that big of a problem.

# To the rim is "a level teaspoon". Less than the rim is "a measly teaspoon".
If you pile the sugar into a mini-tower on the teaspoon, it's "a TOWERING INFERNO teaspoon".
