n. An ingenious contraption designed to harness the convulsing limb power of those heavily afflicted with cerebral palsy, and convert it into a uniform forward motion. The name limmo is derived from the pseudo word "limb-bo", as the limbs of the pilot are strapped in securely to avoid self-harm.
First documented in an obscure South African science journal, the "limmo" developed a cult following among the Joey Deacon generation of jive-talking office workers.
