The horrifying (to a writer) meme ‘tl dr’ (too long, didn’t read) has yet to be joined by ‘tl dl’ and ‘tl dw’ (too long, didn’t listen; too long, didn’t watch), but it can only be a matter of time, because as many of us can attest, we’re already at the point of, for instance, dragging the scroll bar ahead when checking out a video on YouTube.
