There's no other way to summarise, no good one liners in the post. Also, it's the TL;DR that I am pointing out as awesome. It's the kind of TLDR that makes you read the comment. It's not a punchline.

Kind of like a newspaper headline, except it goes after the article.
TLDR: inverted inverted pyramid
