"Too long; didn't read" or the like. I can't stand people who are always saying, "SUMMARIZE YOUR TEXT WALL," especially if it seems like it's a coherent paragraph with a good argument. Learn to damn read, and shut up about how long the paragraph is.

And the people who actually add a TL; DR section at the end or add a little bite-size, one sentence bit about the HALF PAGE argument just for the lazy asses aren't helping the situation either.

Can you summarize that plz?
Jkjk. You have a very good point; it gets especially irritating when someone has a legitimate point to make.

I don't read huge blocks of text that aren't indented and have a space between every line to mark new paragraphs.

It helps to use bold and italics in key areas to avoid the "wall o' text" syndrome. That allows someone to skim when they would normally not even attempt to read it.
