TL;DR - meme gif
TL;DR - video

tl;dr : Too long, didn't read.
"Did you read the fourth definition, it was quite witty!"
"no tl;dr"
What does "TL;DR" mean?
Too Long; Didn't Read
Used in reply to a post and/or comment or other written material that dragged on way too long about things that weren't very important.
Also sometimes used by trolls on posts that are longer than their attention span, or in an argument or flame war when one person can't come up with a comeback.
Also usable on your own lengthy post at the end followed by a quick summary of the above material as a courtesy to people who might not want to read the entire thing. Essentially the same as writing "In Summary," when used this way
1. Guy #1: Did you read that book for english class yet? I'm still on page 537.
Guy #2: tl;dr. The book is mostly made of random extraneous details. I bought the study notes instead, they were only 50 pages long.
2. Troll: lulz ur such a fag
SomeGuy1: It really is pathetic that you would make accusations about my sexuality instead of coming up with a legitimate argument. I wonder if you even watched the video before posting.
Troll: tl;dr LOL
SomeGuy1: How old are you, 5?
3. (lengthy post)
tl;dr, Cats are awesome.
TL;DR - what does it mean?
A) "Too long; didn't read.", meaning a post, article, or anything with words was too long, and whoever used the phrase didn't read it for that reason.
B) Also used by someone who wrote a large posts/article/whatever to show a brief summary of their post as it might be too long.
a)
Guy One: Did you read that book for English class?
Guy two: No, tl;dr.
B)
Guy one: Cake is a form of food that is usually sweet and often baked. Cakes normally combine some kind of flour, a sweetening agent (commonly sugar), a binding agent (generally egg, though gluten or starch are often used by vegetarians and vegans), fats (usually butter, shortening, or margarine, although a fruit purée such as applesauce is sometimes substituted to avoid using fat), a liquid (milk, water or fruit juice), flavors and some form of leavening agent (such as yeast or baking powder), though many cakes lack these ingredients and instead rely on air bubbles in the dough to expand and cause the cake to rise. Cake is often frosted with buttercream or marzipan, and finished with piped borders and crystallized fruit.1
Cake is often the dessert of choice for meals at ceremonial occasions, particularly weddings, anniversaries and birthdays. There are literally millions of cake recipes (some are bread-like and some rich and elaborate) and many are centuries old. Cake making is no longer a complicated procedure; while at one time considerable labor went into cake making (particularly the whisking of egg foams), baking equipment and directions have been simplified that even the most amateur cook may bake a cake.
tl;dr: Cake is a baked, yummy sweet.
TL;DR - meaning
It is a simple abbreviation for too long didn't read. it means that you sent a very long text that the receiver didn't read

TL;DR - definition
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!"
TL;DR - slang
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...

TL;DR
Short for "Too Long; Didn't Read"
Originally intended for when someone makes a point in an arguement/discussion and the intended target of the point cannot be bothered to read the lengthy comment. However, it has been overused and brutally raped of it's meaning due to people being incapable of responding with an intellectual/witty remark. Now most commonly means "Your arguement is so sound and accurate that I can find no flaw to point out. However I do not wish to look like an uneducated fool, and so I shall instead respond as if you are the ignorant one for posting an in depth comment of such length that it would imply too much effort to read." Ironically, a large number of people would be likely to comment TL;DR to this definition if given the opportunity, thereby showing that they fall into the category of people to whom this applies
Original intended use:
An individual, most likely a "nerd", posts a comment of excessive length on a subject, unnecessarily expanding on points rather than getting to the point, thereby deserving of the response
TL;DR
Recent most common usage:
A point is made in which the commenter backs up their claims with facts and evidence, only to receive the response

TL;DR
"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."
