The whole "tl;dr" thing

Tl;dr I move to put this caveat at the top of the wall of words.
I read and then see said caveat at the bottom and think, I could have saved myself from reading all that bullshite. I mean, if the "tl;dr" summary at the top peaks your interest, you can go ahead and read the whole post.
...can I get a second?

too yankee;didn't read

Didn't read meant you had the opportunity to read it and chose not too.
If at the beginning it would have to be "too long, not going to read"

I disagree. I always scroll to the bottom to see how much I need to read. If I see a TL;DR, I will read it.

Nah, the tldr would necessarily include spoilers.
If you see a long OP you already have the option of scrolling down to see if there's a TLDR summary. But if the TLDR summary is at the top it's the first thing you see.

Why post it? It is such a passive aggressive statement. You could just hit it and quit it.
