English Translation
He really gets across me.
Not sure what ‘gets across me’ is supposed to mean. Better to use ‘annoys me’.
It seems to be slang for “to annoy”. get across - Wiktionary, the free dictionary (see meaning 4).
I don’t know the finnish nuances, but if ärsyttää is also slang, it could fit well as a translation
Edit: well, apparently the finnish entry of get across does state it directly as a synonym, so I guess it’s fine
Good find. However, I have to admit that I have never heard that expression. ‘To be cross with’ is common though. I will need to ask somebody about it.
