Gangnam style isn't an exercise?!?

Today I was doing my normal warmup, went to log it, and was devastated to find that doing the complete Gangnam Style dance is not in the exercise database. Naturally, I added it in, but I am just surprised that MFP has not recognized this intense (way more intense than Zumba) new dance style. If I were to scientifically add it up, I would say that it burns at least 6000 calories. I could add it in as dance, but Gangnam Style is 200.342 times more intense than regular dancing- I made that a decimal number so it must be true. Does anyone else have this problem? I know I can't be the only one with fireworks in the workout room so that I can replicate Gangnam Style exactly as the music video has it. I will admit that it can be kind of hard to get 30+ Koreans to dance with you at 5:45 in the morning (CST), but that just means you aren't putting enough effort in! Please MFP mods, add in Gangnam Style as an exercise!
