for the first couple frames you think it’s a commentary about romance, but it turns out to be an elaborate buildup to a your mom joke

Back in the 00s "Your mom" was considered the height of humour by all people of good sense.
A lot of XCKD comics made "your mom" jokes.
For instance - 502: Dark Flow - explain xkcd

This one feels quite touching, and it makes me curious what it is about. Does someone know any context about this one?

I interpret this as being about loss. If I remember correctly, Randall Munroe has written about his partner having cancer in the past. I expect (but don’t know for a fact) that this is him mourning…?
