We decided that "Five by Five" happened between "New Moon Rising" and "The Yoko Factor".

Which still doesn't gel with Buffy being a heinous bitchqueen in "Sanctuary," like she and Riley weren't getting lethally pelvic like, a week beforehand, not to mention having settled the crisis of Faith a good two weeks before in "Superstar."

But in "Superstar" they made an alternate universe! Which explains everything. Although that reminds me that I need to make a Shrimpworld icon. (But not until I at least start the paper! Really!)

Yeah, RIGHT! I now have an outline. It consists exactly of this:

I. The invention of television was a media revolution.
A. The invention of television fundamentally altered space and time relations in society.
B. The invention of television refigured the existing hierarchies of power and social status.
II. The invention of the Internet was a media revolution.
A. The invention of the Internet fundamentally altered space and time relations in society.
B. The invention of the Internet refigured existing hierarchies of power and social status.

Creative, eh? I took a celebratory break by playing with some Hannah pics and Photoshop. It was a less than grand idea, but I'm done now. Really.
