Black Mage: Let me just stop you right there before I am honor bound to cut your face like an elven whore. Thief: Hold on. Elven whore? Do I even have to tell you why that's so offensive to me? Black Mage: Look, if your mother had made dresses, I would have called her a tailor instead.

Ocelot and Liquid try to explain how "your mother's a whore" is the highest insult possible, and wonder why they couldn't just skip ahead to that.

In Pokémon-X, May is being pestered by the NPCs of Dewford, who go on and on about "Invincible Legend" and how awesome it is. Eventually, she snaps and tells one of them that the real big thing is "your mother". The NPC takes her at her word, and when Brendan explores the town, he hears everyone talking about "your mother" and thinks they're the rudest group of people he's ever met. As the comic writer points out, this is actually possible in the games on which the comic is based.

(Dr. Lee then revealed it was actuallyLadyhawke.)
Nick again, when Moustachio finds him in a funk (and not the Tigerlily kind):
Moustachio: Is this regarding Dr. Lee? Nick: What?! No! Dr. Lee? Your mom's Dr. Lee! Moustachio:I can gauge your feelings, and my empathy is two springs and a Vial of Mercury. Nick: Your mom's a vial of mercury!
Officer Tod throws around an absurd number of these during the final battle of Sluggy Freelance's "Phoenix Rising" story arc. An example:
Boy: Well, your mom turns every conversation into a "your mom" joke and it's becoming unbearable. Girl: I'm serious; I can't take this anymore. I'm leaving. Boy: ...That's whatshesaid! Girl: Yes. Yes, it is. [Alt Text] Girl: Seriously, it's your mom jokes or me. Boy: Then I, like so many men before me, must reluctantly choose your mom.

, a get-together made up entirely of "your mom" jokes.
