Maybe, but my point is that the population couldn't have been that high to begin with.

My knowledge of pre-Columbian North America is admittedly highly limited, but I was under the impression that it was generally thought to be maybe low millions. So if the percentages are like those in modern Wizarding Britain, you could have only thousands, maybe only hundreds of witches and wizards on the entire continent.

One I just saw on Cracked is that Mary Poppins is a Timelord.
1. Her bag is "bigger on the inside". That is Timelord technology
2. Her Umbrella is much like a classic sonic screwdriver.
3. Typical Timelord arrogance

This is kind of a pre-emptive headcanon (unless it turns out to be true, in which case, wow) - after the credits of the Baywatch movie (which against all expectations I'm seriously considering seeing), the Rock and Zac Efron come back late at night into the darkened life guard HQ, the lights come on, the Hoff's standing there in a long leather coat, and he says "My name is Michael Knight. I'm here to talk to you about the Knight Industries 2000 initiative."

Cheesy action tv series shared universe, go.

What implications were those? The only thing we know about how one gets bending is that it depends on which nation one is born from - parents from two nations give a shot at inheriting one of two instead of just one, as seen in the case of Mako and Bolin or the children of Aang and Katara. ATLA, of course, had the identical twin boys from "The Fortuneteller", one of whom was an Earthbender and the other wasn't, definite proof against genetics being a predominant factor.

Am I forgetting dialogue from the show?

As for my personal headcanons?

Mass Effect: The main story for the Citadel DLC of Mass Effect 3 comes after Shepard destroyed the Reapers with the Crucible, and the presence of EDI is because the Starchild/Catalyst neglected to mention that the synthetics damaged by the Crucible could be repaired and restored with work, because the Catalyst didn't want Shepard to initiate the Destroy option - it's still following its programming, and can't destroy the Crucible with the Reapers because the Crucible actually uploaded new command coding into the Catalyst forcing it, and the Reapers, to ignore the Crucible. All it had left was manipulation.

The only bit that comes before the ending is Anderson signing his Citadel apartment over to Shepard.

The Indoctrination Theory is the true ending of Mass Effect. Everything that takes place in the 'official' ending is just a Reaper induced hallucination. And if Shepard chooses to destroy the Reapers, he/she wakes up and really kills them. Just for some reason this last battle happens off screen. All surviving party members from all three games take part in this final assault in some way, much like the end of 2.

I give no credit to Bioware for this, btw. It is entirely a fan creation to fix the cluster fuck of an ending they gave us. It's just the fan ending is more valid than the 'official' ending, because the 'official' ending is just one giant plot hole that cannot be taken seriously unless we ignore the pretty much the rest of the trilogy.

Oh, now I got it! The real ending is Shepard getting killed at the end of ME2! Everything after is just trying to clue you in to the fact that you've past the real ending, and now you're in unofficial territory.

well steve, LOK also attributed all bending to be a blessing from the lion turtles when the canon of TLA stated they cam from elsewhere (dragons, badger moles, moon and ocean, sky bison) and as for getting mroe specific on the genetic implications i would need to rewatch to point it out, haven't seen an episode in 2 or more years now.

I don't watch Riverdale, but I saw this hilarious fan theory going around Tumblr that says that the world of Riverdale makes loads more sense if you envision it takes place in an alternate reality where Scientology is the dominant religion. *LOL*
