Explanation

Experiment

The joke plays on the literal interpretation of "being warm." Usually, "warm" refers to a comfortable temperature, achieved through a fire. But the punchline uses the same word to refer to being on fire which is a very unpleasant way of being warm. It's a dark take on a common saying about helping someone.

Lol you should have said "..and you'll be on fire for the rest of your life".

Zhin from paladins says that

what a dumb joke because the fire would go out over time and the dead body would cool down making it not hot therefore this joke is not true

You shut up semorebutts.

He'll be on fire for the rest of his life, implying he's gonna die very fast :)

also works as a pick up line

You dumbas semorebutts he would be on fire for the rest of his life so it doesn't matter if the body gets cold because he won't be alive anymore anyway, so therefore it is true!!!!!!!
