What is Palsied Limmo?
1.
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.

e.g. Mongo was securely strapped into his palsied limmo and began hurtling down the street at an alarming speed, his tongue and DNR medallion trailing in his wake.
