I'm a simple person. I don't say: ". Write this or another way, created about 300 variants to say "hello", and only after that write me. Communicative patterns don't irritate me, so you're absolutely ok!". (?)
Я человек простой. Я не говорю: «не пишите так-то и так-то, будьте оригинальными, сочините 300 способов сказать "привет", и только потом пишите мне». Меня не раздражают шаблоны общения, так что с тобой всё абсолютно окей!

I’m a simple person. I don’t go around saying “Don’t write like this or like that - be original; come up with 300 (different) ways to say hello and only then can you hit me up.” There are no speech patterns in particular that irritate me, so you’re totally fine!

Simple person-это типо не очень умный, лучше plain person
Good to know.
I’m just a plain person. I do not insist for you to write in some particular manner or another. Try to be inventive, come up with 300 way of saying “hi” and once you’ve done it then get in touch with me. I’m not annoyed with various speech patterns, so you’re totally fine.(?)
Евгений, not bad! Here are some suggestions: (1) A plain person is a nondescript, boring person. SIMPLE is better in this context. (2) INSIST is followed by a THAT-clause with a subjunctive: “I insist that he go tomorrow.” (3) ONCE YOU’VE DONE IT (*THAT) is grammatical, but it’s a bit of a stretch here when you can simply say ONLY THEN (followed by inversion). (4) ANNOYED WITH is used to mean ANGRY AT. Here it’s better to use irritated/annoyed BY. (5) YOU’RE TOTALLY FINE is perfect 👌🏼
Also, 300 wayS...
Ok thanks Uly! But I’ve always thought that a SIMPLE person is somebody not very smart)) And how about using a REGULAR person or DOWN-TO-EARTH person?
You’re welcome)) When you mean that you’re not a pretentious, uppity person who expects a lot, you say “I’m a simple man.” Context is everything and in this context we use “simple.” In another context, we just “REGULAR guy/joe” meaning that you’re not rich or famous by any means, and you’re not pretending to be.
