I'm on a crusade...anybody with me?

Some of you guys know me, whether it be from this forum or other horror forums but I'm on a crusade for the term 'blood-n-guts' --we all know and love it, right? So why has it been passed over as a term suitable for new word/term cultural dictionaries. This is something I posted in another horror forum and it describes how the hell I got to this place:

I've been watching horror movies my whole life and have been a huge fan of the occult. The other day I was at a bar and some film school jerks, you know the kind, were totally ragging on horror movies--like the true blood and guts type of movie. They called it trashy and a waste of time-- whatever. Suspense is cool and all but hell, I love my trashy chainsaw yielding menaces and have been crusading for blood-n-guts to be entered into a cultural dictionary and recieve the cultural recognition it deserves. Fuck, if Puggle (a damn mix between a pug and a beagle) can get into the cellphone dictionary (yeah, can you believe that?) then blood-n-guts should be able to make it. I've gone onto the www.textfast.t9.com and have written to the customer support team trying to get it added into the dictionary. I use that function and feel the need to be represented. Am I totally off? Or is ubersexual a more important term than blood-n-guts (ubersexual also made the cut--no pun intended)

I'm being totally serious guys-- let's get proactive. If this is something we love we should stand up for it. wordspy.com is another somebody to bug. Anybody with me?

Sometimes overrated and too much empathis on the old squirting vein..

Its used quite frequent from gamers.
I gotta scroll back a few threads from last year in xlan to find it ..so gimmie a little time.

I dont have time for another crusade.

It takes too much time and I never feel like I am accomplishing anything.
