I believe the word "facetious" is the only word in the English language that has all the vowels in ascending order.

On technicality - "facetiously"?

But I just looked it up, there are others e.g. abstemious.

So even if you were born after this picture was taken, the materials you’re made from are still on the frame of this picture.

That's not perfectly true. About 500 meteorites hit the Earth's surface every year, and scores more burn up in the atmosphere. That means technically atoms and molecules are being introduced in very small amounts to the Earth every year, and there is some chance that some of those atoms/molecules have been incorporated into the bodies of people born since 1969.

What's very interesting is that every atom in your body has been replaced since you were born, apparently at an average of every 7-10 years, so no part of your current self was actually present the day you were born.

Also when you were born you were 100% made up of atoms provided to you by your mother, i.e. technically you were an amalgam of everything your mother consumed, breathed and some small fraction absorbed through the skin during the 9 months you developed.
 
On TV when they show a patient flat lining (the long beeeep) that is the point where the Defib no longer works in real life.

What about the astronauts who have died ......

We are made of star stuff.

Supernova Explosions

By scientific standards, the origin of iron is one of the most violent processes imaginable. A type of star known as a red giant begins to turn all of its helium into carbon and oxygen atoms. Those atoms then begin to turn into iron atoms, the heaviest type of atom a star can produce. When most of a star's atoms become iron atoms, it becomes what is known as a supernova. It explodes, showering space with iron, oxygen and carbon atoms far and wide.

From here, gravity takes over, forming the atoms into planets such as Earth.

You mean God is a Supernova? The answer I have been looking for.

When i was 21 i was taking out a 5 year old girl in a similar situation to you and your mother.I am one of the few people who was dating a 5 year old with her parents approval.It sounds repulsive but we both found the situation highly amusing
