...Where to begin?A popular web cartoon created by David Firth, Salad Fingers is a notoriously surreal and disturbing series set in a seemingly post-apocalyptic world. The title character is a grotesque recluse with long green fingers, a seemingly sexual fetish for rusty objects, masochistic tendencies, several Companion Cubes, a very loose grip on reality, and a habit of (possibly unintentionally) killing or otherwise harming everyone he meets.It's that kind of series. It has 13 episodes which are pretty much considered Not Safe For Humanity. We warned you. | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed: David Firth described Salad Fingers' voice as a cross between his grandmother and Michael Jackson. Basically, "what MJ would sound like if he was from Yorkshire." | |

Darker and Edgier: Episode 6 has Salad Fingers eating a clone as well as Episode 10 of Salad Fingers. It features a carnivorous puppet cutting a hole into a horse with its claws, Milford Cubicle's corpse returns only to have the remains consumed, leaving the skeleton behind, and lastly five other Salad Fingers-like beings were eating his remains. Salad Fingers's mannerisms are also slightly darker this time around as well. Episode 11 has the theme of toxic family relationships. | |

Grotesque Gallery | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_19c85474 | comment |
Grotesque Gallery: Everybody. EVERYBODY. Including: Salad Fingers himself: a bald, noseless, red-eyed, lanky green "man" with three fingered prong-like hands and filthy yellow teeth. A large eyed and limbless "young child" whose head looks like a kernel of corn from the first episode. In episode 3, the screaming man with a combover and wearing a "BBQ" apron that has no arms. A "little boy" from episode 4 who looks like an embryo and stalks Salad Fingers. It has black bulging eyes, needle-like teeth, and a large scar on its bald, veiny, and oversized head. The only characters that come even close to averting this are Mable from episode 5, which is to say she looks recognizably human, and the child from episode 2 who Salad Fingers accidentally shuts into his oven and cooks who also looks human and is even wearing a varsity letterman jacket. | |

Crapsack World: Whatever the hell happened to this world, it's been left a barren, dry husk where people don't see each other for miles. Even the occasional glimpses we get into people other than Salad Fingers, such as the obviously dirty and suspiciously unattended Mable, imply that no one's having a great time. | |

I'm a Humanitarian: Salad Fingers eats Jeremy Fisher (who turns out to be himself) in one of his Freak Out moments. In "Birthday", Salad Fingers approaches a table where there are five other versions of himself, and two of them are eating human brains. Salad Fingers is cooked and eaten by the younger Salad Fingers at the end of "Harvest". | |

Companion Cube | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_2482df9c | comment |
Companion Cube: Many, to the point a new one is introduced nearly every episode. The most frequently recurring are the finger puppets, Hubert Cumberdale, Jeremy Fisher, and Marjory Stewart-Baxter, introduced in the second episode. Milford Cubicle (the corpse of an armless man) in the third episode. Horace Horsecollar (a toy horse) in the sixth episode. Kenneth (a mummified corpse) in the seventh. Roger (a radio) in the eighth. Yvonne (a slimy black infant-sized mass) in the ninth. Dr. Papanak in the tenth episode. And then he's not! Arguably, Glass Brother (Salad Fingers' reflection) in the eleventh episode counts. An unnamed rotting dog carcass in the twelfth. Bartholemew Degryse (a rock) in the twelfth and thirteenth. | |

Lampshade Hanging | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
Lampshade Hanging: In episode 5, the creepy crow gags in disgust when Salad Fingers feeds the little girl "pease pudding" using a rusty spoon taken out of a pouch made up of pieces of human skin sewn together. Some even believe it says "Fuck you" in a distorted voice; there is a "fuh" sound in there, but YMMV on whether that is the message. In episode 8, Roger remarks that Salad Fingers's house is filthy and demands that he clean it up. | |

Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant: Salad Fingers' voice, mannerisms and dialogue are extremely unnerving, usually more so to the viewers than to the other characters (though some viewers find his voice to be creepy and oddly calming at the same time). | |

Vocal Evolution | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_2ef005ab | comment |
Vocal Evolution: SF's voice started off as hushed/whispery (this was Enforced Method Acting at the time, as Firth recorded his lines late at night and didn't want to wake his family up), of which escalated into sounding more soft-spoken as time went on. At times he'll even exclaim, though it never transitions into screaming. | |

The Unintelligible | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_32821ceb | comment |
The Unintelligible: Almost everyone except Salad Fingers. In fact, when one character actually speaks to him, he is profoundly disturbed. "What's wrong? Do you not like my mouth-words?" The Radio in episode 8 at first just emits creepy noises, then begins speaking back to Fingers with Fingers's own voice. Most of the very rare exceptions to this trope are extremely closely connected to Salad Fingers himself in some way, like Glass Brother, Glass Mother, and Boyfingers. | |

Wham Line: "As it's Hubert's birthday, it would be rather polite if you took a hot bath... Milford Cubicle." Episode 11 ends with Salad Fingers rescuing Hubert Cumberdale, besting Glass Mother, and smashing the mirror through which she could berate him. He puts one small shard in a trinket box, and as he closes it, Glass Mother offers this last threat: "Just wait till your father gets home!" | |

Obliviously Evil | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_51c70be6 | comment |
Obliviously Evil: Salad Fingers tends to kill people (and animals, and puppets) without even noticing. The "people" part is debatable. The only humans who have died in the series have been the boy who got stuck in the oven while Salad Fingers was passed out, and the man who died from banging his head on the door. Salad Fingers can't really be said to have killed either of them, though he's certainly oblivious enough to be capable of this. | |

Broad Strokes | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_547196be | comment |
Broad Strokes: Most episodes stand alone, but what gets carried over seems to take this approach. This is most noticeable with Salad Fingers' possessions and puppets: Horace Horsecollar makes further apperances after Salad Fingers is gifted him in "Present", but the fact that Jeremy Fisher is eaten in the same episode never comes up again. Hubert Cumberdale's new status as a "Flesh Boy"— a major plot point in "Glass Brother"— is dropped without further mention. In contrast, Salad Fingers biting off Marjory Stewart-Baxter's hair, a relatively minor event in "Glass Brother", is still reflected in her subsequent appearances. | |

Bizarre Alien Reproduction | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_640ebd81 | comment |
Bizarre Alien Reproduction: Salad Fingers has extremely strange sexual behaviors, lactates, and has interpreted inanimate blobs that have burst from his body as his offspring. He successfully reproduces in Episode 13, "Harvest", after a tendril is shoved down his throat and he eats an eyeball. The offspring grows out of his back, is fully capable of speech even prior to "birth", and seems to grow into adulthood quickly. It is never clear whether this is a "normal" phenomenon— just that Salad Fingers seems to think it is. The fact that Salad Fingers apparently has a mother and father (as well as siblings) just serves to further complicate the matter. | |

Modest Orgasm: Salad fingers has a brief one in episode 3 when he rubs nettles on his chest, causing his nipple to lactate. Curiously, this moan was cut from the original video but left intact in the episode compilations. | |

Fantasy Counterpart Religion | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_69dff6df | comment |
Fantasy Counterpart Religion: Salad Fingers frequently mentions "The Beast" in a way that evokes idiomatic references to the Christian devil (and suggests a strict religious upbringing). "Harvest" has shown him praying to the "mother of life" and engaging in a ritual where he sacrifices an old finger puppet, then encountering a seemingly-divine entity called "Grandmother Growth". He later references the commandments of someone called "Naughty-master". Whatever his religious beliefs, it seems to be this rather than any real-world religion— though whether anyone else in this universe is a practitioner, or even whether these beliefs are just another product of Salad Fingers' imagination is unclear. | |

Truly Single Parent | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_6a492371 | comment |
Truly Single Parent: In Episode 13, "Harvest", Salad Fingers grows a "Miniature Mr. Fingers", also called "Boyfingers", out of his back. This offspring is clone-like, being nearly identical to Salad Fingers and seeming to share memories with him, having "walked [his] dreams for decades". Salad Fingers raises Boyfingers as a sort of successor— with the episode climaxing with an apparently voluntary (though still horrifying) Kill and Replace. | |

Animation Bump: Episode 9, "Letter". Justified as this episode came after a three-year hiatus. Episode 10 looks even better, partially because Firth switched from Adobe Flash to After Effects. The backgrounds have become far more textured and photorealistic, the cinematography more dynamic and the drawings have better perspective. Episode 11 is another leap forward in quality, with Firth now incorporating even more realistic effects (the reflection in the puddles are actually filmed rather than animated). | |

Freak Out | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_7fbe9a30 | comment |
Freak Out: In episode five: Salad Fingers either only imagines the noises that he hears, or makes them himself. Because he is insane, he feels like he's completely deserted and all alone. He had gotten used to hearing no other voices except his own since all the other characters can only articulate screaming and animalistic noises. When Mable speaks, it sends him into a panic attack because he hasn't heard any other voices but his own for a long time, which causes him to snap back into reality and realize she is a normal, real human being and not a hallucination or a monster. You'll notice that after this episode, all the other episodes include Salad Fingers crying, having bad memories, feeling lonely, and being afraid. Mable's voice is what snaps him out of it. | |

Breather Episode | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_80a247a9 | comment |
Breather Episode: After the emotionally intense "Glass Brother", which delves into the subject of abuse and cutting off toxic relationships, the following episode, "Post Man" is rather tame by comparison, going back to the series' roots of simpler animation and an ambiguous narrative. Whilst the ending music of "Glass Brother" is melancholic the ending music for "Post Man", is more mischevious and upbeat. | |

Creepy Doll: Any of Salad Fingers' three finger puppets can be this. To elaborate, Hubert Cumberdale can become human-sized, gain red eyes, and scream for no apparent reason, as well as randomly turn into a black liquid that burns at the touch. Marjory Stewart-Baxter jealously watches Salad Fingers have a picnic with a little girl through the window. Jeremy Fisher can also become human-sized, stores a weird green fluid in his plugged-up mouth, and can suddenly transform into a second Salad Fingers to get eaten alive by the first. | |

Autocannibalism: This happens in Episode 6, "Present" and is depicted on that episode's thumbnail. Or maybe not. Its not very clear just what is going on, only that Salad Fingers likes his doppelganger's brains. A similar situation recurs in Episode 13, "Harvest". Salad Fingers somehow becomes the Truly Single Parent to a doppelganger of himself. By the end of the episode, the doppelganger boils the original alive and serves his corpse at the "grand feast". The original samples the taste of his own flesh while being boiled. | |

Mind Screw: All of it. Particular mention goes to the ending of episode 6, where Salad Fingers walks into his house and sees a doppelganger sitting in a chair. The Salad Fingers sitting down accuses the standing Salad Fingers of 'deflowering' his daughter's rose. The standing Salad Fingers morphs into a life-size Jeremy Fisher, goo trickling from his mouth. The sitting Salad Fingers remarks about not tasting him, and proceeds to eat the normal Salad Fingers' head. It's never explained which Salad Fingers was real. Everything that happens after the pole shows up in Episode 10. Episode 11 was designed to be this, by Word of God. David Firth specifically explained that his intentions with this episode was to prove that the show was a Faux Symbolism series. This decision was due to his dislike of the "Salad Fingers Explained" video by Game Theory: he posted on social media that the conclusions reached by this video were not at all what he aimed to do with his creation, and that the (then to be released) episode 11 would debunk the video's so-called "solving" of the series. | |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight: When Hubert Cumberdale, a usually mute finger puppet, becomes human-sized, gains red eyes, and screams at Salad Fingers, Salad Fingers nonchalantly knocks Hubert Cumberdale on the head with a rusty spoon and continues to sing "Somewhere Over The Rainbow". The two normal human characters in the series go along with Salad Fingers' requests (getting a fish out of the oven and joining him in a picnic) despite him being a creepy green imp-like creature. At least the Varsity Kid seems to be much more apprehensive about it. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: At the end of episode 4, when Salad Fingers gets captured by the strange boy trying to propose to him, he laments "he doesn't like this game anymore", pulls a curtain over himself and rides away on a tap. Yeah. | |

Surprise Pregnancy | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_db52f2ff | comment |
Surprise Pregnancy: Possibly in episode 9. Salad Fingers feels deathly ill with an affliction that makes him pale, seep a black fluid, and have a pulsating distended abdomen. Then a black blob bursts from his abdomen. After he regains consciousness, he happily accepts the slimy mass as his newborn daughter. However Salad Fingers may just be delusional as usual. | |

Antiquated Linguistics: Salad Fingers talks like this— liberal use of Northern English colloquialisms is the norm in Firth's work. | |

Art Evolution: Compare episode one to episodes nine and ten. Between technological progress and Firth maturing as an artist, there's a world of difference. | |

Never Learned to Read | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_e9a3a1ed | comment |
Never Learned to Read: Possible for Salad Fingers. He totally ignores that the name tag of the person in episode 3 shows his name "Harry" and calls him Milford Cubicle, invents a letter written to him while actually holding a piece of a newspaper upside down in episode 9 and writes unintelligible symbols on toilet paper in the same episode. | |

Creepy Child | |
| Salad Fingers (Web Animation) / int_f3d5d15f | comment |
Creepy Child: Mable, the little ginger-haired girl in "Picnic," at least in-universe. She doesn't really do anything scary, but she manages to terrify Salad Fingers himself just by speaking. The child-like... thing in "Cage" and Mr. Branches from "Letter" may also qualify. As well as the small yellow child (referred to by Salad Fingers as "Aunty Bainbridge" in "Letter") who does nothing more than stare with his wide eyes and make screeching sounds. | |
