How to handle mothers

Thanks to Chemgal for sending and discussing this SMBC:

Chemgal and your Editors in consultation fairly quickly pinned down what is going on here. But we didn’t want to put it all out there and deprive you readers from tossing it around yourselves.

Suggestion to early commenters, you might avoid spoiling it for others, and just state that you have it. But those working to piece it together, please go at it.

…

For those who think the extra bits of cartoonist text are an integral part of an SMBC — well no, they aren’t really, but you can have them anyway:

Votey: Now do your mother-handling homework!!
Rollover: OK, if patreon is any indication, many of you are confused but four and a half of you are HOWLING.

Two comics from Ian with the common element of unpaid internships, which he notes “seem to be everywhere at the moment!”

And finally, an Ewww-LOL from BillR. It’s the “number 2” that clinches it!

Is there a *particular* “traditional Christmas sweet, cherished for generations” that he fears will be mishandled by American adaptation?  And he doesn’t name it?  Are we supposed to be able to figure it out; or is it just generalized and hypothetical?  

Originally picked up from GoComics, but phsiiicidu was able to locate it at SMBC’s own site. So we can report on the rollover text, as there are those who think an SMBC is incomplete without it. But here it seems to offer nothing to solve those doubts. “One day, molecular printers will allow starbucks to serve every conceivable food as a whipped topping.”
