Some trivia (don't know if you already know it): Millenium Hand and Shrimp (and others) were created when Pratchett fed a random word generator with a badly-translated Chinese menu.

Went to a Chinese place once... (REAL Chinese, not Chinese fast food) and the menu had 'live' pork, fish, duck, frog, etc... Stuff like that. Turned out it actually meant 'fresh', not live. (Thank god.)

...Though they did have tanks full of dying fish in the back... 0.o THAT put me off fish for a while.

EYECCH. PRAWNS. Naasty. Especially if... alive... -shudder- Yick...

You seem to have a very good grasp of Pratchett's sense of humor. Very good! :D

o_o Huh. I hate shrimp. I'd never thought about it before, but I actually have something in common with Foul Ole Ron. Oh, buggerit.

Ha, that's awesome. Always wondered what that meant, and this is as good an explanation as any. Good job!

Dahaha! Great fic! You know, I laugh every single time he says the "millenium hand and shrimp" thing, so having an explanation to it is brilliant. :D Very well-written. Everyone was very in-character. Especially Gaspode. XD

O_O ^_^ (My first time in Discworld ff)
That... was definitely interesting. You did a good job explaining it. Maybe these "random sayings" aren't so random...
