Culture Buzz Utterly charming cakes from nerd nuptials. Much more fun than all of that William and Kate, Royal Wedding stuffiness.

d'Armond Speers, a father from Minnesota, decided to only speak to his son in Klingon. For three years. I bet d'Armond will regret this decision when he's shelling out massive amounts of cash to cover the therapy his kid will need after getting pounded during recess everyday.

In the early days we all tend to think our kids sound like they’re speaking language from outer space. But d’Armond Speers went the other way.

Klenginem is a German rapper/singer who performs songs in Klingon. On a sidenote, I noticed that his photo gallery incorporates like, every fall fashion trend: fur vests, buckled boots, and leather pants.
