Let's compose a list of reasons why you shouldn't take yourself/the world to seriously.  I might make this into a post if it gets good.
1. You once climbed headfirst out of a woman's vagina. (from XKCD)
2. You are full of shit, piss, and vomit.
D. You loose consciousness for an average of a third of each day.
4. There are more bacteria cells in your body than you cells.

Add your own!

Your body has 10 times as many bacteria cells as human cells.

Therefore, you are only 10% human.
Is it plugged in?

Mathematically speaking, wouldn't that make us 9.09% human?

Anyway, since all of the cells in our bodies make up our entirety, doesn't that make the bacteria cells "naturalized" human cells? They are still part of us, and we would die without them. The human DNA is more like the nucleus or the framework of what we are built out of, and the bacteria that also comprise our beings are just as vital to our humanity.

For a very superficial definition of "basically". In the same sense, your DNA is basically the same as that of a potatoe.

Rococo Modem Basilisk

Your genetics are the result of the combination of a random selection of half of the chromosomes of one partner and the complement from the other (not counting doubled-chromosomes and mutations). Neither one of your parents (nor both as a group) influenced you as much as the arbitrary interactions you had or observed with arbitrary people and things. Most of your base personality was set when you were an infant too young to speak, and a large chunk was set before you could even crawl. A good amount of the rest was probably generated by advertisers, between children's television, periodicals, and schools (which are typically happy for money and equipment from corporations who like to print logos on things). Your interests are largely determined by your peer group, which is largely determined by your location and those personality traits you got as an infant. Your love life, likewise, is largely determined by your peer group and your infancy, and those first few attempts were probably modeled off of television and film romances. So, your whole life thus far was largely determined by random chromosome swapping, the coincidence of proximity, television, advertising, and ambient noise and visuals you encountered as an infant.
