TLDR

Also sometimes "TL,DR" or "TL;DR".

"Too long; didn't read."

1.) This is commonly used in Internet communities to respond to verbose postings which the respondent did not have the patience to fully digest.

2.) This is also occasionally used to designate a summary preceding or following a verbose post to which others may otherwise respond "TLDR".

1.) <Alice>: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Duis non neque sapien. Donec eu egestas dui. Quisque pellentesque pellentesque eros, eu posuere leo interdum id. In consequat, enim eget cursus aliquet, massa sem elementum ipsum, ut vestibulum magna arcu et odio. Maecenas vel pulvinar neque. Aliquam erat volutpat. Vivamus dictum vulputate dapibus.

<Bob>: TLDR

2.) <Alice> TLDR: This is just a bunch of filler text. It doesn't mean anything.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Duis non neque sapien. Donec eu egestas dui. Quisque pellentesque pellentesque eros, eu posuere leo interdum id. In consequat, enim eget cursus aliquet, massa sem elementum ipsum, ut vestibulum magna arcu et odio. Maecenas vel pulvinar neque. Aliquam erat volutpat. Vivamus dictum vulputate dapibus.

TLDRian

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.

General public : Shut up.

Teldryn Sero

The best follower in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. A grumpy Dunmer with a smoker's cough that somehow adds to his charm.

I would fistfight Todd Howard himself to make Teldryn Sero marriageable.

TLDR-tard.

One who posts a reply to a post that indicates they clearly haven't read the original entry.

It was like the guy hadn't read my post at all, he sounded like a total TLDR-tard.

TLDR

"Too Long, Didn't Read"

Appropriate response to a long email in which the author takes too long assembling random, disjointed words into something funny or insightful.

TLDR.
