"give back what is mine"
can be addressed to a person or can be used as a noun, referring to the event or the person.
said by women trying to get back their possessions from a guy, who has either stolen them or kept them for a long time, these possessions usually being very feminine, with the suggestion that the guy might be using them. the guy is generally a dandy as the phrase is taken from a passage by Ovid in his Ars Amatoria:
"Sed vitate viros cultum formamque professos,
Quique suas ponunt in statione comas.
Quae vobis dicunt, dixerunt mille puellis: 435
Errat et in nulla sede moratur amor.
Femina quid faciat, cum sit vir levior ipsa,
Forsitan et plures possit habere viros?
Vix mihi credetis, sed credite: Troia maneret,
Praeceptis Priamo si foret usa satae. 440
Sunt qui mendaci specie grassentur amoris,
Perque aditus talis lucra pudenda petant.
Nec coma vos fallat liquido nitidissima nardo,
Nec brevis in rugas lingula pressa suas:
Nec toga decipiat filo tenuissima, nec si 445
Anulus in digitis alter et alter erit.
Forsitan ex horum numero cultissimus ille
Fur sit, et uratur vestis amore tuae.
'Redde meum!' clamant spoliatae saepe puellae,
'Redde meum!' toto voce boante foro. "
Avoid those men who profess to looks and culture,
who keep their hair carefully in place.
What they tell you they’ve told a thousand girls:
their love wanders and lingers in no one place.
Woman, what can you do with a man more delicate than you,
and one perhaps who has more lovers too?
You’ll scarcely credit it, but credit this: Troy would remain,
if Cassandra’s warnings had been heeded.
Some will attack you with a lying pretence of love,
and through that opening seek a shameful gain.
But don’t be tricked by hair gleaming with liquid nard,
or short tongues pressed into their creases:
don’t be ensnared by a toga of finest threads,
or that there’s a ring on every finger.
Perhaps the best dressed among them all’s a thief,
and burns with love of your finery.
‘Give it me back!’ the girl who’s robbed will often cry,
‘Give it me back!’ at the top of her voice in the cattle-market.
the redde meum usually takes place the day of the walk of shame, so that the woman, with her cold materialism, might pretend as if nothing happened.
it can also take place when the woman is freaking out that the guy has severed ties, and the woman leaves something of hers purposely the night before
finally, it can take place when the guy is just being a douche and has deliberately stolen something post-severing ties. the woman does this, not only to get her shit back, but also to embarrass him (with possibly a hint of feeling still left).

Get the redde meum mug.The word "Reddy" is short for calling a man or woman a redhead. It's also for people who are too lazy to say "redhead" or find it fun to shorten words in general.
Damn! Christina Hendricks is one hot Reddy!
The only reason I watched the X-Files for all these years was because of Scully. She was a real cute Reddy!
Conan O'Brien is the funniest Reddy of all-time! Jay Leno is a hack!

Get the Reddit Gold award mug.A user on the site Reddit.com that will follow the guidelines known as 'The Reddiquette' religiously, as if they were the sworn rules upheld by a knight.
User1: Hey guys, I know it's a repost, but I haven't seen it before so you have to listen to me. And anyway, the Reddiquette clearly states that you should not complain about reposts.
User2: Come on, this guy is an obvious karmawhore, stop defending him and stop being a knight of the reddiquette.

Also used when you can't think of an idea for your videos. or just make a credit channel where down syndrome cucks just read "lfmao funny stuff" and get paid. then when they get criticism they cry and say "I am so sad cause many people say I don't put effort in to my videos just cause I am mentally challenged. but just cause I make Reddit videos doesn't mean that I am unoriginal"

Get the Reddit mug.Reddit is a platform full of people that make the same jokes, over, and over, and over again thinking that they’re funny. Oh, and you aren’t allowed to make a spelling error there, if you do, get ready for your device to blow up with notifications of people explaining how you are worse than Hitler for spelling a word wrong. And don’t even think about having a different opinion than someone else, that simply isn’t allowed
