Not the most thought-provoking post on /r/Buddhism, but please, let's laugh at ourselves and our little things ... every day, with love and affection.

It's actually the dumbest post I've ever seen on /r/Buddhism. (Don't take it as an insult, I don't mean it like that.) But people seem to love it, so it's OK.

Haha, luckily I meditate a lot, so I'm not offended _^

Haha definitely worth a chuckle!

May I suggest /r/laughingbuddha next time, it's great for stuff like this :3

For anyone baffled by this cartoon: the big orange object on the altar is a resistor, a type of electronic component.

Also, "ohm" is the unit of measurement used for resistors, named after George Ohm and obviously similar to the sacred incantation of Dharmic religions.
