Saturated Fatty Acid Insult

Text on the meme

when it takes you a while to process what someone is saying and you realize they asked you a question I cannot fucking believe I am drunk, past midnight, and tumblr is throwing fucking saturated fatty-acids at me Listen here friendo I didn’t sit through a year of organic chemistry for you to come into my house and call a carboxylic acid a saturated fatty acid you respect that hexadecanoic acid

What it means

A Tumblr-style exchange shows someone struggling to process a question, followed by a drunk person overwhelmed by a chemical diagram. An organic chemistry student angrily corrects the terminology, insisting that the molecule be called hexadecanoic acid. The meme is used as an absurd reaction to pedantic corrections or unexpectedly technical information.
