a grey ghost of a lady that every primary (at least in my area) had. Usually found in the lads or girls toilets (depending on if you're a lad or a girl). Appears at night or when someone says "grey lady" three times and switches the light off. No primary school kid dared try it and if they did they left before she could appear (apparently). Varying stories of her death and stories of my mates' mate's older brother saw her as a kid.
Boy 1: hey let's make the Grey Lady appear
Boy 2: no! That's just stupid! She'll take her revenge for being jilted at the altar!
(it was common to say she was a vengeful spirit who was jilted by her husband or something similar)

1. A nickname for a submarine. 2. Also, a person who drops a depth charge and farts in an area to be occupied by an unsuspecting victim.
That guy is a grey lady; every time I walk into his office, I check the bottom of my shoe to see if I stepped in dog shit.
Being teabagged (the victim of a person dropping their testicles on another for comedic value) unexpectedly by a person of feminine appearance.
Hey dude, did you hear what happened to Ev last night? That chick he took home Lady Greyed him. Lucky Ev likes surprises.
*Referring to Lady Helena Ravenclaw from J.K Rowling's Harry Potter*
This happens when someone (Often an offspring/friend/spouse/partner of someone famous) gets overshadowed by well... Someone famous (Like how Helena Ravenclaw was being constantly compared and overshadowed to her mother, Rowena Ravenclaw.). It results on the former being constantly compared to, bullied, underestimated or outright discriminated by clueless people based on the latter (The Famous Person), causing mental strain and low self-esteem.
To famous people who have ordinary children/friends/spouses/partners, please never give the Grey Lady effect to them. It sucks. Real bad.
Severus, son of a celebrity dad: I hate my dad. I love acting, but being constantly compared to my dad's achievements kills me.
Dyl: That's the Grey Lady effect for you.
Phyl: That sucks. Being a shadow to your dad.
Severus: I don't like it. I love my dad, but I hate the people treating me like shit because of his fame. I wish I can just be me.
Ghost of Ravenclaw House, the daughter of founder, Rowena Ravenclaw, Helena Ravenclaw.
harry: who's the Grey (or gray) Lady?!
quirrell: the house ghost for ravenclaw, like nearly-headless nick is gryffindor's, the bloody baron is slytherin's, or the fat friar is hufflepuff's, harry my man.
