There's pre-made fonts for Klingon and Elvish which wouldn't take too long to use as a substitution.

#13Switch to Linux, use a tiling WM, download the first four seasons of IT Crowd. Watch them in a 1 inch floating screen while doing your job. Wait for the laugh from boss's office. Or is it only sound... yeah just quit and work somewhere awesomer.
