Obvious
In this week's issue of News of the Obvious, researchers in Australia have determined that longer needles are required in buttock injections if you want to get the drug into the buttock muscle and not the fat tissue.

Reporting that standard sized needles did not reach the muscle in 23 out of 25 subjects, the researcher noted that:
"There is no question that obesity is the underlying cause. We have identified a new problem related, in part, to the increasing amount of fat in patients' buttocks," Chan said.

"The amount of fat tissue overlying the muscles exceeds the length of the needles commonly used for these injections," she said.
