Default Addition to the Glossary?

I was just wandering around the reference pages, and I noticed that the word "fivist" is not in the glossary. Am I the only one who uses that word? I take great pride in being a fivist, both for Stargate and DS9. Not so much pride for Ocarina of Time.

If the word is fivist is not in your guys' vocabularies, what is the equivalent term that you use?

It is.

Well, yeah -- I knew about that.

"Glossary" makes it sound a lot grander... like it's got a whole page to itself, you know?

I guess it does sound grander than a subpage. It is a glossary, so that's what it's called.

Oh, and there were a few more terms I thought might make good additions to the glossary, as long as we're at it.

Kablazmo: The sound of a starship as it explodes. Yeah, I know it's only in the BOBW fiver, but I like it.

GAK: The sound one makes as they die dramatically.

Sarcasm: An essential trait for any Starfleet officer, especially when the scene has gone on for the allotted number of lines and needs conclusion.

Contractions: Something Data only exhibits when it's funnier than him not using them.
