Not to be confused with limnology or limophilia, limology is a substudy of
microbiology, and the study of slime, other moist, vicious fluids, how it is produced, and how the word "slime" used to mean sap or resin. It is also a rare subject to be taught in schools and colleges.
Etmology:
Limology derives from the Latin word "limo", meaning "slime" (Just like the word "limophilia"), and the Greek suffix "ology", which means "the study of". "Limology" can be loosely translated to "study of slime", hence its
definition.
Phil: Wow! I got an A+ on my limology test! wOOt!

Phil: LOL, what did
you get that grade for, Greg? Limophilia? Because your fetish is
the reason for your low grades! Burn!
