O Pioneers!

You can't blame Leroy in Panel One. From his perspective, he simply prefers good news to bad. Considering how much Leroy hates the opera, it had to be he who did the scalping during the "incident" Loretta refers to in Panel Two. Self deluded Loretta considers herself a yoga master in Center Panel, so Leroy decides to have some fun at her expense. His neighbor, unfortunately, is unimpressed. In spite of Leroy splitting an infinitive in Panel Four, it still gets my vote, as Leroy cleverly employs a prop to insult Loretta's dreadful cooking. In Panel Five, Leroy whoops it up with a seven foot bimbo at the latest Levittown cocktail party. Loretta has asked her neighbor to hold her signature plate of two olives, thus enabling Loretta to stir her drink and whip up yet another atrocious pun.
