I didn't so much forget it as I did assume Texans were just playing the martyr for getting their collective asses kicked in. Again.
You know... Like Dallas Cowboys fans?
San Jacincto was a different battle wherein Mexico got their collective ass kicked in there. The Alamo was a rallying cry.
Alamo itself was a rout for the Texians [sic]. There's no side-stepping that. It goes as it goes.
"Have some apple pie. Oops, can't forget the ala mode."
Idky this seems like something weird al would say
I think I got it from Colin Mocheri on Who's Line. So close.
I almost forgot about Dre once

Remember that's the first time Texas fought for slavery.
The Alamo is worth being forgot about. It's always told as a feel good story but it's actually just kinda fucked up. Pretty on par for American history
What about the Lusitania? There's so many things we forgot to remember!
What the fuck is an Alamo? Is it like an Internet but with less porn?
Remember the Alamo!
Clearly, you haven't seen PeeWee. I ONLY remember the Alamo.
The stars at night ARE BIG AND BRIGHT!

Deep in the heart of texas
Weren't they telling Mexicans not to forget the Alamo? I'm not Mexican, so I shouldn't need to remember the Alamo
Aren't we all Mexican on the inside?
Only on taco tuesdays
If someone weighs 120lbs and has severe munchies, probably from that Grave Reaper Vanilla Kush Zombie Lettuce OG, and eats 12lbs of tacos would that make them 10% Mexican?
I'd like to forget the Alamo
me: hey, racistpieceofshit, why do you hate Mexicans?
racistpieceofshit: they killed Davey Crockett at the Alamo!
I wish I was making this shit up
Happy dia de la independencia ๐ฒ๐ฝ
The Alamo's a story of American expansionism by an ungrateful group of settlers welcomed by Mexico.
As all things will be forgotten. So it goes.
Fuck 'em, I do what I want.
I think that only applies to Texans.
Can't forget what you never knew in the first place.
Forget about Dre though?
If that were the case, how did you know to post about it?
The bicycle is in the basement
I forgot about Wednesday until someone asked if I "celebrate", their words.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.
