Happy 25th, David Firth!

The creator of a few strange but entertaining flash animations such as Salad Fingers, Burnt Face Man and Devvo is celebrating his quarter-century one today. Firth’s characters depict what must go on in his head: they are strange, stick-figured  humanoid creatures dealing with the abtract, the surreal and often mentally ill. Although it’s fun to venture into someone else’s subconscious imagination, we must remember it’s mere vacationing, lest it remind us too much of our own deeper selves. That’s not blood, it’s red water. Creepy.
