Shade, n. (from Irish "shéadóg" meaning "blower") - term used to refer to the Gardaí Síochána or other law enforcement agency.
Comes from an era where gardaí carried whistles, which they blew to alert other gardaí and nearby civilians of crimes. The term "shéadóg" was commonly used to refer to gardaí (or other police) in the early 20th century. This became shortened to the English word "shade" in the traveller "gammer" slang, later becoming part of everyday usage.
"sketch bai, it's the shades!"

A racial slur, coined by racial anthropologist Dr. Andrew H. Eberle after his time at Yale, when upon auditioning for a predominately African American acapella group of the name Shades, did not give him a call back. The term was created on the spot out of Dr. Eberle's frustration, and came to be used to refer to any member of the African American race.

Drinking copious amounts of alcohol out of a broken lamp shade. Each participating degenerate takes turns chugging beer/liquor/mix out of said lamp shade. Probably in a Guelph, Ontario basement.
Nick: Yo Tim we don't have a funnel to chug the beer with
Tim: Here use this lamp shade
Nick: Sounds legit, lets get shaded.
