Well, I did it off the top of my head, which is why I had to make sure.

If the victims of witch-hunts had superpowers, why were they killed successfully? Even underwater breathing could allow one to survive certain trials, at least for a short time.
Witch-hunts or other types of genocides...
There are many people who don't like those who are different and would go very far to exterminate them. And even with superpowers, anyone can have moments of inattention when they lower their guard.

I was talking about our profile powers. I'm basing it on the fact that the experiment failed.
Well, we have the Being Human power, an actual power I created.
Maybe all of us acquired it through chained mimicry (Author Power Mimicry -> Empathic Mimicry -> Vespert Tamer -> etc.) Maybe we don't know how to trigger our abilities (I suggest we try every possible triggers, even streaking, walking backwards for a week, hugging everyone you meet, etc.) Maybe our bodies are too old to suddenly accommodate abilities that far exceed their capacity (we lose lots of neurons during our childhood, our skeleton solidifies and many bones fuse together, etc.) Maybe there's a multiverse where the technology, or even superpowers, is so advanced, they can block your attempts. But, there must also be a multiverse where the technology, or even superpowers, is so advanced they can bypass the technology of the previous multiverse. But, then it must mean there's another multiverse where the technology is so advanced, they block the technology of this multiverse. But no, there must also be another multiverse where... GAH! NEGATION WAR!

Bon = good (in Esperanto, bono).
 "Good" would be translated to 'bone' or 'bona' in this case, not 'bono'.

@Shadowulf1:
"Very good" would be translated to "très bien", or informally to "très fort" in French, when you want to congratulate someone's action.

I am not at all photogenic.

So I would be extremely unlikly to put a photo of me as my avatar.

Happy Birthday
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Well, I never said I spoke French. I only said I could speak some Esperanto (and a few words of Italian from primary school), which are both similar.
Bow before your unimaginably powerful overlord!

Wait a minute, I'm currently too busy holding a cork in mid air for petty groveling.

I did not comment about the French part. It's just that "bono" is a substantive, a noun in Esperanto (ends with an '-o'). "good", as an adjective, translates to "bona" in Esperanto. When you say "very good" to someone, it would be "tre bone" in Esperanto, I believe.
