a term originating from forums and text messages in respons to ebscenely long forum posts or texts. means 'too long, didn't read.' the original use has died out however, and it is now only ever used by argumentative cunts who have been outargued and don't want to admit it. as uch, it's current meaning (which would be the corrupted phrase) is 'can't think of an argument, gonna pretend i couldn't be arsed to read it.'
man 1: ...so yeah. learn your stuff, man, you're making yourself look stupid
man (?) 2: (thinks) shit, that's a damn good argument! i got nothin'! unless...

"Too long? Don't read"; "Don't bother reading if it doesn't interest you".
Not to be confused with tl;dr.
When you previously gave some information or made a joke and want to give more clarifying info, but also want to admit that knowing said info doesn't gain you much benefit either.

Too Long; Don't Read. Most commonly used in forums when there is a "Wall of Text" (A very long, typed message/ comment/ story, etc.).
Poster 1 says: "Blah blah blah, blah blah..."(continued for 500-1000 more blahs)
Poster 2 says: "TL;DR! Damn, just blog it and stop wasting forum space!"
