@ "How did I end up inside this purple wormA gargantuan version of the harmless rain-worm, the purple
worm poses a huge threat to the ordinary adventurer. It is
known to swallow whole and digest its victims within only a
few minutes. These worms are always on guard, sensitive
to the most minute vibrations in the earth, but may also
be awakened by a remote shriek.

'inside joke' meaning 'joke about being inside'?

Your sense of humor is about like mineMade by Dwarfs. The Rule here is that the Mine is either long
deserted or at most is inhabited by a few survivors who will
make confused claims to have been driven out/decimated by humans/
other Dwarfs/Minions of the Dark Lord. Inhabited or not, this
Mine will be very complex, with many levels of galleries,
beautifully carved and engineered. What was being mined here
is not always evident, but at least some of the time it will
appear to have been Jewels, since it is customary to find
unwanted emeralds, etc., still embedded in the rock of the
walls. Metal will also be present, but only when made up into
armor and weapons (_wondrous_).

For clarification, an inside joke is a joke that only a limited audience would understand, hence the "inside" part. This is why Dudley does not get it.
However, the joke here is that this is a joke about being inside.

Breaking the fourth wall only works if there's something inside to show.

It is clear that hpp3 is an incorrigible punster, so please don't incorrige him.

You could remove 3 panels and this joke would still work. Stop wasting space on the Internets.
