All Babysitters Must Quit

by The GoComics Team

Though the fiercely independent Calvin resents the concept of being babysat, he and Hobbes still find a way to be disarmed by the impossibly resilient Rosalyn. Behold a level of competence few other teens could withstand in this collection of every Calvin and Hobbes babysitter storyline.

Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson

Mom: Oh, Rosayln, you're here! Good, come in! We really appreciate your coming on such short notice. We've had a terrible time geting a babysitter for tonight. Ha ha. Maybe little Calvin here has gotten himself a reputation. Rosalyn: Ha ha. You have the half up front? Mom: Yes, let me get my purse...

Rosalyn: Hi, baby doll. It's me. Yeah, I'm babysitting the kid down the street. Yeah, that's right. The little monster. ..Hmm?... Well so far, no problem. He hasn't been any trouble. You just have to show these kids who's the boss. ..Mm hmm.. Calvin: How much longer till she lets us out of the garage? Hobbes: She said 8 o'clock and it's almost 6:30 now...

Mom: Thanks again for babysitting, Rosalyn. Rosalyn: Calvin was no trouble at all. Dad: That's good. I'll get the car and drive you home. There you go. Good night. Rosalyn: Thank you. Good night. Calvin: Is she gone?

Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson

Calvin: We've got a baby sitter tonight. Ready? Hobbes: Ready. Mom: Calvin, the baby sitter is here! We're going! Be good ok? Rosalyn: Hi there. You must be Calvin. Calvin: Hmmph. You're not my Mom, so I don't have to do anything you say. I'm going to do whatever I feel like, so just stay out of the way. Rosalyn: Calvin, take a look by the telephone and tell me what you see. Calvin: A note Mom left with emergency numbers. Rosalyn: Right. Now you wouldn't want me to have to call any of those numbers, would you? Calvin: Well, it must be 6:30. Guess I'll turn in. Rosalyn: For eight bucks a night, I don't put up with much.

Calvin: I can't believe my mom signed me up for swimming lessons. Here I am freezing my buns off at 9 in the morning. About to jump into the ice water and drown. The only thing that could possibly make this worse would be if the class was... ...Taught by my sadistic babysitter!! Rosalyn: Well, look who's here!
