That Ukrainian Y

My Ukrainian friend Y has the philosophy of "plainness."  He thinks everybody should be just plain and regular.  He's like one of the Amish and other conservative religions, but he's not because he grew up under Atheism.  He thinks geniuses and the like stick out like sore thumbs.  He grew up in the Soviet Union when a haircut cost a few cents and most things just had an "artificial price."  He likes the autumn, which soon will be coming.  He thinks it's a "sleepier" season.
