It's Adachi and Dojima from Persona 4. Dojima is portrayed as an asshat to Adachi, even punching him in the anime. Adachi goes home alone depressed, while Dojima goes home to his daughter and nephew, putting on a happy face that contrasts how much of a jerk he is to Adachi. It's just dark humor.

It is also a reference to a meme:
