Today (Or tomorrow, its kind of complicated) México celebrates 205 years of independence. Well, kind of. What actually happened was that in 1810 Miguel Hidalgo, who we call "El Padre de la Patria" called the people to fight for a better government. A few might argue he really didn´t wanted Spain to stop governing, but a big movement did start, people started killing each other, alliances, betrayals, all kinds of stuff. One thing lead to another and by the end of it, in 1821, after pretty much all the players that started the war died, México was a free country... kind of.
Aaaaaanyway, you can check Wikipedia or an actual book for the full story, is actually pretty fascinating, it even got its own brilliant Telenovela.
But what this means for us is that us Mexicans have a free day to drink, party, have our president yell at us for a few minutes and, of course... put a mustache on our avatar!
What? That is not a real tradition? But... but I already put a mustache on mine...
Come on! It will be fun! And it just can be for the 15th/16th of September!
Here, I even made a mustache for you to go ahead and just put on your silly face:
VIVA MÉXICO CABRONES!!!
