I'm surprised to hear people saying that slime is supposed to be thicker--I've always thought just the opposite
Slime to me is usually specifically referring to a (usually green) liquidy viscous substance, but can sometimes have clumps in it. (i.e., "Nickelodeon style")
I just use gunge as a catch-all for everything else messy that isn't slime. (i.e., food based mess is usually referred to as gunge).
The only exception I think would be Natrasol based gunge (which technically falls under "slime" by my definition, but I still refer to it as "gunge")
For me it is like saying what's the difference between a flat and apartment? They are the same thing but one is said in Britain, the other America. People might actually disagree what something has to be, to be an apartment/flat. Number of rooms maybe or size or number of floors for example. But they are the generic term. Same with gunge/slime - one is said in Britain generally (and I think New Zealand!), the other America (and everywhere else). I don't think there is an agreement. I don't think slime has to be chunky for example. I do associate it with green and fairly smooth, but then in the UK a show called SMU has thick, creamy and multi coloured 'slime'.

Thats a really good analogy because there's a colloquial distinction here; an apartment is often considered modern and upmarket while a flat typically an older place in a less affluent area. But they're both still single-floor dwellings in a multi-story complex. (so if your selling/renting call it an apartment, you might get more for it)
This is the same distinction I'm trying to understand with this thread.
Love you, too
