Extremely tight shorts on a female. The shorts are said to be so tight, that you can see the lips moving, but you just can't hear what they are saying.

The hairs at the nape of your neck. Often used in the phrase "to be got/caught/held by the short hairs", which means that someone has you trapped in something, and you are unable to easily escape. Although often confused with the phrase "short and curlies" (which refers to pubic hair), the phrase "to be caught by the short hairs" is common from as far back as 1890 when it was used by the author Rudyard Kipling, whereas the phrase "to be held by the short and curlies" didn't come about until WWII when it was used primarily as military slang.
Although I'd rather come to your party, I promised my co-worker I would watch GoT with him. He took a photo of me sleeping at my desk last week, so he's really got me by the short hairs; I can't cancel on him, or he could get me fired.

The area adjacent to the friend zone where a guy has no chance because he is shorter than she is. This is worse than being in the friend zone because, unless you can still grow, you have no hope of moving out of the short zone. Guys in the short zone must resort to the nice guy role, the acquaintance role, or just set up their tall friends. Good luck to all of you in the short zone we feel for you.
Me: “Hey, who was that? Did you get things going with her?”
Friend: “No, she’s 6 feet. She short zoned me before I walked up.”
Friend: “No, she’s 6 feet. She short zoned me before I walked up.”
