I'll agree about the sense of humor but from a physiological standpoint
I think you have more of the same atoms than you might think.  My
completely a guess estimate would be someplace between 20-40%.
But it could be much higher.  Reasons being that bone and to a lesser
extent muscle turnover are low and cells are quite efficient at using
old molecules to make new molecules.
