It means "too long; didn't read."

When someone posts something on a forum or somewhere that takes longer than, say, a minute or so to read, some idiot will invariably post immediately afterward with "tl;dr". What they're trying to say is "I think you wrote too much, and I'm not going to bother reading it because I'm too lazy to do so, but I'm going to make a stupid, pointless comment anyway, in a lame, failed attempt to be edgy and cool."
