If you pour water on iron it rusts it, imagine what all that water is doing to the iron in your body!
Dihydrogen monoxide has a 100% fatality rate. You shouldn't joke about it.
A single water molecule has more hydrogen atoms than all stars known in our solar system (totally stealing this joke)
Fuck me that took 3 reads to understand. Might need a top-up in the old coffee department.
Didn't get it... Are you implying that the Sun doesn't count?
We only have one sun. But there are two hydrogens in H2O
Got it 🫣
How many hydrogen atoms are in a water molecule?
I wanted to counter this with the fact that you and me are both still alive, so the rate is only approaching 100%, but probably never quite there. Then I did a safety google, and got to learn that fatality rate apparently doesn't care about the time until death. So as long as I don't assume I'm immortal, your fact still holds true. But then I remembered that some jellyfish and sponges are considered to be be more or less immortal. Which raises the question: do we count beings which will most probably die out due to the expansion of our own sun as part of that 100% rate?
I think we are approaching Ship of Theseus territory.
But more specifically I was referring to the human rate.
A surprisingly large portion of all humans who ever lived are alive today (the first result I found says 7%)!
