Ah the old guess the signal/filter cv game. So kohanz cringes, that is one data point, but will the company you apply to cringe if you do it, or cringe if you don't?
If "cringe" is a factor in reviewing resumes, you're doing it wrong anyway. Judge people on what they've done, not how they present it.
It's widely held that most people ARE doing it wrong.

Most companies just care that you know your stuff enough to be production so 3-5 years of experience is plenty saying 7 years isn't going to improve your level/pay/experience.
Keep things honest, I wouldn't advertise that you avg. 60 hours per week worked on holidays etc. You'll be better off getting away from that in your next job.
I've done that before and seen people do that for years and when things go bad they are still shown the door like everyone else. So don't be that person. Work reasonable hours for reasonable pay.
