The Student Room

The Student Room is an online forum for teenagers, primarily, but you'll always find adults who exercise their bragging rights because their little Annabelle or Toby got 14 A*s at GCSE and 4 A*s at A Level, and is going off to Oxbridge. This bragging is omnipresent among students too. There are many different kinds of forums, ranging from 'I got rejected from Oxford. Am I still special?' to 'My friend got into Teesside and is happy. How do I let her down?'. As demonstrated by these forum names, there is a lot of fapping to Oxbridge and its equivalents, where a common mentality is present, that being 'if you don't get in, you fail at life'. Politically, it is leftward skewed. Surviving for a day as a righty is impossible, as you are hurled abuse from the left majority, being referred to as more -ists and -phobes than there are made up genders. Consequently, an admin or rep will fish you out of the crowd and shut you down. Things not to criticise on the Student Room: Islam, Positive Discrimination, Wage Gap *coughs* bullshit *coughs*, Racism against white people (rEVerSEd RaCiSm), feminism, gender being a spectrum, Oxbridge (the OJW (Oxbridge Justice Warriors) will be on your back), Immigration etc.
