That moment when you realize you're just a simple sugar getting called by your IUPAC name. The chemical structure shown is actually sucrose (table sugar), with its full systematic name that looks like someone had a seizure on a keyboard. Chemistry professors love dropping these monstrosities on exams and watching students' souls leave their bodies. Next time your mom uses your middle name, be grateful she didn't name you after your molecular structure!
