and that the Reapers have only shown up twice. 

iirc, in mass effect 2 there a text bit on one of the planets that refers to a Reaper-invasion some million years ago. So there's at least 3 :p
Could have been planted.

Deceiver god.  It's Occam's Razor.

I have never seen the reason to try and reason (haha) more into a plot than what the writers intended. Take it for what it is, and not diss it for what it isn't.

I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Some response from Casey Hudson:
http://pc.ign.com/articles/122/1220715p1.html

This is boring stuff as usual, but what I did like was this:
"Particularly aggrieved fans have launched a campaign to get the Mass Effect 3 ending changed. There is even a Retake Mass Effect movement which is raising funds for the Child's Play Charity, in the hope of being taken seriously by Bioware. So far they have raised over $29,000. Their mission statement reads "We would like to dispel the perception that we are angry or entitled. We simply wish to express our hope that there could be a different direction for a series we have all grown to love." "

Some people need a live :D

Man have nerds ever liked the ending of a beloved nerd franchise?  Even the ending of LoTR, which they all knew in advance, got slammed.

I just learn that if you had Kelly Chambers do a lap dance for you in ME2, you can romance her in ME3.  Goddam it!
Good thing I kept a saved game for this, he, he :)

The MP bug, where your character can't shoot, can't use his powers... that's really annoying.
