A trivia question in sixth grade english comp is one of four things I remember from that class:

"What is TAFKAP?"

I'd like to vote Alexander Nevermind.

One of my favorite factoids is when Prince became TAFKAP, his front office distributed a 3.5" diskette to news bureaus with the symbol in a font format, so that they could render it in print. It was also posted to Compuserve. Later they resorted to CD-ROMs and the web.
