I'm not a Buddhist but if I were I'd say you're in for a cold winter and it's time to buy a new coat.

There has to be some deep hidden meaning here. Should I be buying more flood insurance or something?

fits the theme. Buddha has snails on his head to block the sun, and a cape on his back to look fly as hell

The snails gathered on his head to block the sun and now he has a moth jacket too. It's your sign to buy a moth jacket.

Oh, are you a Buddhist? I’m a Christian, but don’t worry, I’m not homophobic or going to make you convert. Cultures are so interesting to me, I love seeing things from a different perspective.

ok but what is your intention to say you are Christian in a completely unrelatable post?

Buddha had a Red Bull

That is undoubtedly a syandana. It's an ornament worn on the back in a video game called Warframe. Normally I wouldn't try to draw that comparison, but... I mean, it looks just like it. They even have a collection of them designed to look like moths.

Not all portrayals of Buddha are the fat laughing one. The original Buddha was an ascetic for awhile and was actually a skinny guy. Here's more info on that

Cape. If you vote "cape", then reply "cape". If you vote "coat", then reply "coat".

Like James Brown being led off in the cape before he swings back into action for an encore!

I was thinking he became a dark souls boss but that works too. It's good baruuk fashion.

The fat laughing one is Budai not Buddha. That's the one most people falsely identify as Buddha all the time

Silly me. I thought it was the influence of Greco-Roman sculpture. Great story, though. Never heard that one.

I don't know. I only see a moth that's really good at blending in.
