I don't think we've ever figured that out. Not to my knowledge, anyway.
There are cockroaches in Mexico big enough to own property.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Why does the episode start out with the title and time/date? I've never understood this.
Shhh! They're being artsy. Best to just go with it...

Trust my rage
Darn - I keep hoping there's an answer. I guess I'll go with arsty for now.

What is even happening?
I think the answer was actually that they were just being artsy. I seem to remember one of the writers saying something about it, but can't remember who or where, sadly.

I think it's supposed to help indicate to the viewer that a)the episode is happening in real time and b)all four(?) storylines in it are unfolding at once.
Which may be what Cindy and victor meant by artsy, actually.

Trust my rage
I've always wondered how all this scrutiny would make me feel as a writer. I mean, it could get sort of iritating to have people examining every detail. OTOH, it could be really cool that over a year later, people are still discussing your storytelling decisions.

I can't even.

Heh. A measly year? I intend to be blathering about the importance of Giles' connection to a mystical tradition or Xander's sense of isolation decades from now.
Of course, my conversation partners are likely to be my 112 cats.

Well, there's always the possibility that John will be a lone deported survivor of the great Ashcroft Porn-Instigators Pogrom should such coincide with one of our f2f gatherings.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Because they wanted everyone to know it was my birthday.
