There's also Canadian English (en_CA), and perhaps others too...

The ISO is in the process of adding "en_LOL" for Lolcat, aka Kitteh or Cat Pidgin[1]. (If you don't think there's a need for this, consider what HTTP "Language:" header value should be used by daringfurball.org or icanhascheezburger.com.)

I presume Jens was joking, but for a chuckle, go to Google web search, hit "Preferences" and check out the Interface Language preference. There are lots of real ones (be careful experimenting, you may have trouble getting back to English!), but a few fakes as well. LOLcat is, regrettably, not one of them, but they do have Klingon, Hacker (notice what "Hacker" is when written natively), and my personal favorite, Elmer Fudd.

Even Leopard (and Tiger, not sure about further back) has Klingon (tlhlngan Hol)! Don't know about the ISO code for it though.
