When some tall guys act like they have a right to speak to people like they're pieces of shit on the bottom of their shoes because they have a height advantage over them. They think that just because they're big it means they can't get knocked over.
"Billy is just a prick, he thinks he can treat everybody like dirt because he's 250 and 6 foot 4. Worst case of Tall Man Syndrome going."

Man 2: "I would have never guessed... he's so thin!"
Man 1: "But he eats a hell of a lot!"

A term applied to a short man whenever he is assertive or commanding. If the exact same attitude was taken by a taller man, no one would think twice.
Tall guy steps out of a new Camaro: "Hey, check out that guy with the Camaro!, that's a sweet ride, I wonder how much he makes."
Short guy steps out of a new Camaro: "Dude, look at that little man with the Camaro, Talk about compensation!"
Tall employer assigns difficult task: "My boss gives me hard jobs, but whatever, everyone has to work."
Short employer assigns difficult task: "Damn, that prick loves to lord his authority over me! He has major Short Man's Syndrome!"

When a man must act mean at all times to feel good about himself. He probably has an uncircumcised penis and is self conscious in crowds.
Do you know that guy Peter? You know, the guy with mean man syndrome who always says mean things and is kind of ugly and tall?

This typically describes a man under 5 foot 5 inches. Short man syndrome men usually have a heavier body, a small head , but a larger face, typically are going bald. A man with short man syndrome will try to overcomensate for his small stature by buying oversize cars, always lying, being very controlling, very bossy, and think they are always right. They cannot admit they are wrong. They will align themselves with the people they think can do the most for them, and will use people to their advantage, lying about everything. They will cruise myspace, facebook,...ect... for hours trying to find friends that are female (that they dont really know) just to give the impression that they are popular with the ladies.
Mike bought a oversize SUV even though he could not afford the gas, cause he wants the girls to focus on the car not that he is short. He has short man syndrome.
Nick invite every girl onto his myspace to look like he is popular.

Overly vocal declarations of one's physical prowess and penchant for threatened violence. This sort of child-like behavior is usually found in small-statured people who feel they need to make up for their physical inadequacy somehow.
OMG, what I wouldnt give to have 10 minutes with this son of a bitch in a dark alley. I wouldnt kill him, no sir, that's the easy way out. I WOULD MOTHERFUCKIN' BREAK HIM! I would relish all the creative ways I can think of to break every bone in his body. Id leave him just brain damaged enough for him to realize the plight he is in. The absolute hatred I harbor for this man permeates every fiber of my soul and body.
