I saw a patch on a backpack about a year ago that depicted a dinosaur with an asteroid which read, “never forget. I wouldn’tve thought that much about it but today I saw a T-shirt with a similar image and the same words.
What does it mean? Never forget what?
Isn’t it just a jokey sendup of all the “never forget” stuff that started after 9/11?
I agree – it’s a parody of tributes/remembrances for tragedies which use that term.

I think it’s a joking reference to the asteroid that crashed offshore of the Yucután Peninsula and brought about the extinction of the dinosaurs about 65 million years ago.
Sounds like an SMBC cartoon joke, but this is the closest I found so far.
One of my favorite T-shirt slogans has to be, “Imagine Whirled Peas”.
A runner up would be, “Fight Plate Tectonics.”

Jokey, yes. But also perhaps seriously raising support for asteroid impact prevention efforts. IE: Space awareness.
It’s interesting that Never Forget superseded Remember, as in Remember Pearl Harbor, Remember the Maine, and Remember the Alamo.
Not sure what that says about the language, except that it always changes. And always keeps the past alive: there was a Remember the Titans movie title recently.
Remember “Remember”: Never Forget
*Curiously, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell, was: ‘Oh no, not again.’ Many have speculated that if we knew exactly why the bowl of petunias had thought that we should know a lot more about the nature of the universe than we do now.

I was comparing it to the Alamo!

And 9/11 was 21 years ago.
I think it came way before 9/11. It was a Jewish saying after WWII. Also stated as “never again” or both together.
I thought it was about the groundbreaking cult-favorite TV series.
