Literally, "Too long; didn't read"
Said whenever a nerd makes a post that is too long to bother reading.

Too Long; Didn't Read
Literally translates to: That was too long to read.
Really translates to: I'm too lazy to read the entirety of what you said, but I still want to say something.
Now, instead of just dropping capitals the modern internet communicator also drops tiresome reading! The time savings will be incredible.
Person A: Hi, do you know anything about where Jamie and Brad are?
Person B: tl;dr
Person A: Uh... How should I have said that?
Person B: do u no where jamie n brad r
Person A: AGH... It burns!

"Too Long; Didn't Read" - a shining example of the sweeping Attention Deficit Disorder pandemic that seems to have embraced our society. Usually said by people who a) have never read a book, b) have no logical retort, c) want an easy laugh, or any combination of the three. Not to be confused with "TMS;DU", meaning "Too Many Syllables; Don't Understand", which is likely how some of you reading this feel about this definition.
Spanky - "I find it hilarious that any definition of TL;DR condeming those who use it as uneducated morons, are the ones receiving more thumbs down - just like this one probably will - even though they are the most accurate. That just further proves that people - especially kids - have a consistantly dwindling attention span, most likely indirectly proportional to the amount of media and entertainment devices we feel the need to constantly plug ourselves into."
Spunky - "... TL;DR"
Spanky - "Are you sure it wasn't TMS;DU?"
Spunky - "... l0zz0rs, pwned."

Stands for "too long; didn't read".
Along with the above-mentioned use of tl;dr by lazy jerks and trolls, the use of this term is a great way to cut down long-winded, nonsensical arguments made by insane conspiracy theorists who are probably wearing tin-foil hats while typing them.
Johnny: There's no way the moon landing happened in real life! For one thing, the shadows of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin in photographs are pointing at different angles. The pictures could only have been taken in a studio! And there aren't any stars in the lunar sky in the pictures, either. How could they have ... (etc.)
Jake: tl;dr
