Acronym for "Through the Fire and the Flames" by Dragonforce. This song is the last song you get to play on the career mode of Guitar Hero III. The song is so long and ridiculously hard that the makers of the game made it a credits song that you can't fail the first time you play it.
F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X. is like TTFATF minus some of the satan.

The acronym/slang for the DragonForce song entitled "Through the Fire and Flames".

Popularity of this song increased dramatically after it was included into Guitar Hero 3, as it was arguably the most difficult song to beat in the game.

The ability to beat this song on the Expert difficulty quickly became a very well known and sought after skill.

Many people began to listen to DragonForce and Through the Fire and Flames, making it the "cool" thing to do.

This prompted Facebook groups such as "I listened to dragonforce before GH3" to be created.
"What are you listening too?"

"Through the fire and the flames man!"

"It's.. there's no .. Why do you think there's only one t in TTFAF? .. cause.. never mind" Sigh*

The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
