Get the tldnl mug.A person who posts nothing but "TLDR" on everything within a forum. Usually referred to as a troll, but this is a more specialized case. TLDR is an acronym meaning "Too Long Didn't Read" and is used when you have no interest in reading a topic. Used to say basically that your thread, and you yourself certainly suck.
