I recommend standing up. No specialty shorts required...

Troy Lee Designs 4600 padded shorts. A bit pricy but they will last a very long time.

I picked up a pair of the cheap ARC branded shorts, liking them so far, the hip pads are a feature you don't see on the bicycle shorts, otherwise they are much the same. I could have sworn I got these from GnarlyParts, but don't see any clothing/gear at all on their website now, so I dunno...

Klim tactical shorts. Great protection (thigh,hip and tailbone)

Picked up a pair of the EVS Tactial Under Gear shorts they were 60bucksish. They have a chamois area to keep everything cool and a butt pad insert. So far so good. I also have several pairs of underarmor shorts that hold up well to abuse they are definately cheaper.

Isn't MEC one of those sneaky anti-dirt bike companies?

I have a set of TLD shorts and they are way better than my MEC shorts.

Alpinstar Bionic shorts. They have hard hip and tail bone armor. Great it you find yourself "away" from your bike often
