Line #24 Funny/TheBabysittersClub


1	* Mallory's dad has lost his job and over the phone, Mallory worries about her family and asks Jessi to let Mal lean on her, since she has all her siblings leaning on ''her''. Jessi's reply is something like, "Boy, if they lean on you, and you lean on ''me'', I might fall over."
2	* '''Stacey:''' Charlotte will never be Mozart but who cares? He had bad hair!
3	* In #56, Claudia tells Jackie to use his common sense and flatter the audience, and Jackie says, "I think I was born without common sense."
4	* Sweater-pants!
5	* At her first dance with Logan, Mary Anne doing a kick while she dances and flinging her shoe way across the gym.
6	* Janine mentions she knows about Claudia hiding books from the Nancy Drew "serial" in her room and assures her she won't tell their parents, who have forbidden them. Claudia mentally says that she does indeed hide food in her room, but not cereal.
7	* Mary Anne's "apology" notes to the others (except Claudia, the only one who didn't say anything mean to her during the fight) in ''Mary Anne Saves the Day'', but especially:
8	-->“Dear Kristy, I’m sorry you’re the biggest, bossiest know-it-all in the world, but what can I do about it? Have you considered seeking professional help?”
9	** After she reads them, she concludes that she must still be angry.
10	* While it's mostly a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment\|s}}, Kristy's statement of "That's all?" about TheReveal of Stacey's diabetes and Stacey's befuddlement at Kristy's theory of Stacey having an eating disorder is worth a giggle or two.
11	* Kristy attempting to walk in heels at a school dance, but giving up about five minutes later and throwing her shoes across the room.
12	* When hosting a concert given by the various neighborhood kids, Jackie opens with "A funny thing happened to me on my way over to this backyard ..." An unimpressed Kristy says, "Who does he think he is, Johnny Carson?!"
13	** "Greetings, Lysol and germs!"
14	* In ''Kristy's Worst Idea'', the seven regular club members ''plus'' Logan and Shannon are at Claudia's house to discuss reforming the club. Claudia's sister, Janine, just stands there in the doorway to complain about the noise and needing new earplugs.
15	* In ''Here Come the Bridesmaids,'' Shannon tries to get the sitters to sing Christmas Carols, but Mallory insists she can't sing. Shannon thus makes it her mission to convince Mallory she ''can'' sing, only for Mallory to start deliberately butchering the song.
16	-->'''Mal:''' ''Chestnuts roasting on an open fire/Jack Frost nipping off your nose...''\
17	'''Shannon:''' At, Mal, at your nose!
18	-->'''Mal:''' ''They know that Santa's on his way/He's got lots of poison goodies in his sleigh''...
19	-->'''Shannon:''' Okay, I take it back. You ''can't'' sing.
20	* In ''Jessi and the Secret Language'', Jessi is practicing the sign language speech she'll give to Matt Braddock's classmates, and asks Matt's mother how to sign something... only to realize half a second later that that's not something you should ask someone who is ''driving.''
21	-->'''Mrs. Braddock''': I'll demonstrate at the next light.
22	* This exchange between Jessi and Mallory in the movie about the money Kristy's camp idea will rake in.
23	--> "We can almost buy a car!"
24	--> "Yeah. And in five years, we can drive it!"
25	* In a book where the sitters have organized a giant sleepover to reward the kids who helped with a fundraiser for a school that had burned down, Mary Anne has been tasked with setting up the music. Dawn, the POV character, starts to address the kids when suddenly "Who Built The Ark?" starts ''blaring'' from the speakers at top volume, startling everyone in the room. After it turns off, Mary Anne meekly says [[CaptainObvious "It works..."]], prompting a kid to [[DeadpanSnarker snark, "No kidding."]]
26	* In ''Claudia Kishi Live from WSTO!,'' Claudia learns the hard way that it's really not a good idea to put your mouth right ON the mic while hosting a live radio show.
27	* In the Super Spacial ''Baby-Sitters' Summer Vacation,'' which focuses on the BSC members at camp, Stacey is finally sprung from the infirmary after spending most of the two-week camp session there for treatment of poison ivy and various other ailments- only to get a splinter in her finger the second she enters her cabin and [[HereWeGoAgain have to go straight back so the nurse can remove it.]]
28	* In ''Boy Crazy Stacey,'' Kristy is home in Stoneybrook babysitting Karen and Andrew, and Karen wheedles her father into letting them wash one of his old, never used cars; Kristy is supposed to help them, but ends up getting diverted by David Michael bringing home Louie the collie with a cut on his paw, so Andrew and Karen carry on without her supervision. Not knowing any better, they use ''steel wool'' to scrub the car (on the logic that "Daddy uses these to make pots shiny"), which ends up scratching off the paint. Kristy, being the responsible one, is the one who ends up with the job of explaining it to her stepfather. Luckily, Watson is actually not too angry about it; he acknowledges that Kristy had to deal with the dog's emergency, and the car is, as mentioned, one he almost never uses except as backup. He then admits there's a silver lining -- he has ''always'' wanted to own a purple car, and now he has an excuse to just paint the one he already has. Karen eagerly tries to get her father to let her and Andrew paint the car.
29	-->'''Watson:''' No.
30	-->'''Elizabeth:''' Absolutely not.
31	-->'''Kristy:''' When chickens have lips.
32	* When the [=BSC=] disbands in ''Kristy's Worst Idea,'' the parents they sit for ''freak out.'' Mrs. Arnold -- mother of twins who the club had to convince her to not to treat like one person -- actually cries, while Mrs. Wilder -- the mother of genius brat Rosie -- wants to have the girls over for counseling, and Mr. Papadakis -- father of Karen's best friend Hannie -- offers the club a retainer to stay together (which confuses Claudia at first- the only retainer she's heard of is the device people wear to keep their teeth straight after having their braces removed). Claudia gets so fed-up with parents calling her at all hours trying to find a sitter that she forces one dad to help her with her math homework.
