A pair of special short's worn day after day that are not capri's but not shorts. Touching the MID of the knee "Susie wore her mid-knee's to school everyday this week!"

| 2. | mid-stride crisis | ||
|
In recreational running, the propensity for any man over the age of 40, when passed by a female, to immediately speed up to reclaim the lead. It is not uncommon for men prone to this affliction to stuff their running shorts with rolled socks. I was out on the running trail when I passed this old man wearing really short shorts. He had a mid-stride crisis and immediately doubled his pace to keep up with me; his belabored breathing and flushed skin had me concerned that a cardiac arrest was imminent.

| 4. | Salute Your Shorts | ||
|
A show that was on nickelodeon in the early and mid-90's. The show was about a group of kids in summer camp, and stared Kirk Baily as Ug, Venus DeMilo as Telly Radford, Erik MacArthur as Michael Stein, Danny Cooksey as Budnick, Michael Bower as 'Donkeylips' Gelfen, Heidi Lucas as Dina Alexander, Blake Sennett as Ronnie Pinsky, and Ben Stein as Dr. Kahn.
It's considered by most people as one of the classic shows that nickelodeon had before turning to complete garbage. Blake Sennett, who played Pinksy on Salute Your Shorts and was a semi-regular guest star on Boy Meets World, now plays in the bands Rilo Kiley and The Elected.

| 5. | mid-day stretch | ||
|
When shorts or pants put on in the morning that are tight enough to negate the need of a belt, but then midway through the day, stretch and fall off of the waist, a mid-day stretch occurs. "My pants are falling off; I thought i didn't need a belt."
"Dude, thats just the mid-day stretch." |

| 6. | Plaid Shorts | ||
|
Totally ghey. In the mid 1970's they were once thought of as cool. Now, abercrombie drones have sodomized the name and ruined yet another thing that was once cool.
By the way guys... You may find them cool, but your grandfather also has a pair. So... Those plaid shorts are really homosexual-esque.

| 7. | summer shorts | ||
|
A pair of shorts worn predominantly in summer that expose more of the body than those around the wearer feel comfortable with. Usually finish above the knee and are of a slimmer fit than regular shorts, but can also be baggy and sit mid-way or further down the posterior. Jaden almost threw up when he saw Jimmy's glorious new pair of summer shorts.
