  • Fatty Lumpkin, a pony from The Lord of the Rings
  • the title character of Fatty Finn, a long-running Australian comic strip
  • Fatty acid

    In chemistry, particularly in biochemistry, a fatty acid is a carboxylic acid with a long aliphatic chain, which is either saturated or unsaturated. Most naturally occurring fatty acids have an unbranched chain of an even number of carbon atoms, from 4 to 28. Fatty acids are usually derived from triglycerides or phospholipids. Fatty acids are important sources of fuel because, when metabolized, they yield large quantities of ATP. Many cell types can use either glucose or fatty acids for this purpose. Long-chain fatty acids cannot cross the blood–brain barrier and so cannot be used as fuel by the cells of the central nervous system; but medium-chain fatty acids octanoic acid and heptanoic acid can be used, in addition to glucose and ketone bodies.

    Types of fatty acids

    Fatty acids that have carbon–carbon double bonds are known as unsaturated. Fatty acids without double bonds are known as saturated. They differ in length as well.

    Length of free fatty acid chains

    Fatty acid chains differ by length, often categorized as short to very long.

    Fatty

    by: Street Dogs

    Shame and anger in his mind
    They torture and this shit's unkind
    Everyone pointed and laughed
    Growing up this kid in school was everybody's hatred tool
    His suicidal thoughts would always pass
    There's just one thing I want to know
    When you have nowhere to go
    How many times did you stand and cry?
    Through thick and thin you made it through
    While no one even cared for you
    How many times did you want to die?
    A new school was your second chance
    But when she ripped your underpants
    Your parents wonder why you're so withdrawn
    They terrorized your neighborhood
    You did everything you could
    Still you got beat up on your front lawn
    There's just one thing I want to know
    When you have nowhere to go
    How many times did you stand and cry?
    Through thick and thin you made it through
    While no one even cared for you
    How many times did you want to die?
    Do you remember back in high school
    That kid we all picked on?
    No one backed him, ever liked him
    He carries that with him today
    There's just one thing I want to know
    When you have nowhere to go
    How many times did you stand and cry?
    Through thick and thin you made it through
    While no one even cared for you
    How many times did you want to die?
    Tell me how many times did you want to die?
    How many times did you stand and cry?
