Weird, in my mind's eye shorts guy is a fat Gen X with a goatee. My mailman who does shorts daily down to -20C is a Gen X (but not fat and no goatee).

But really I don't think this is generation based. Although boomers in baggy basketball shorts is always funny to me (usually a summer thing though)
