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.

Get the Studerophobianotoxics mug.People who refuse grow up. Often in school 20 plus years after high school. while not working, and living off a relative or family members generosity. Usually they have extremely lofty goals such as doctor, engineers, or anything very prestigious sounding. This is a result of wanting to be in a fantasy world, without dealing of the actual pressures of the real world. Often these people can be found at community colleges, but not exclusively. Really a sad thing to be honest. Often these people claim to be geniuses, who sometimes were cheated out of there opportunities along the way. When offered a chance to rectify this such as a prestigious internship, they are often met with many reasons, or personal problems, they cannot accept, but will accept next semester or next year, if possible. Also known to spend a lot of time browsing the internet in private.
Nicolas was a lifetime student. He got his BA and had an additional 120 post baccalaureate credits. His stated goal was to be a chiropractor but at 55 years old, and deep in student loan debt, this was not a true goal. Rather something of a fantasy, while also telling family members and such that he was going to be a “Doctor” while spending most of his time watching tv and fapping
