### First Appearance

*Salad Fingers*, Episode 1*Spoons* (2004)

**Salad Fingers** is a character from the *Salad Fingers* series. He is a deformed man who lives in a post-apocalyptic world. He frequently tries to communicate with inanimate objects and has an affinity for rust.

## Background

In a post-apocalyptic dystopia, Salad Fingers leads a deranged existence. Salad Fingers communicates with inanimate objects, including three finger puppets, the most reoccurring called Hubert Cumberdale. He wanders around the wasteland, acting out his daily routine with other deformed creatures and inanimate objects. He enjoys the feeling of rust on his fingers, calling it "almost orgasmic", and will not stop rubbing even if the rust causes him to bleed.

In his secluded life, Salad Fingers has few interactions with other individuals. The majority of them are unable to communicate or speak incomprehensibly, prompting Salad Fingers to give them names and characteristics. He lacks the mental capacity for interacting with others and panics when interacting with sentient creatures. In the episode "*Picnic*", when a girl he referred to as Mable began to speak with him, he saw her standing in front of a vortex with missing eyes. In the episode "*Cupboard"*, he cries when Roger, his radio, begins yelling at him. He is unable to tell when another person is in pain, as he accidentally left a child to die in his oven while it was on in the episode "*Friends*". When a mutant dies banging his head against the wall in the episode "*Nettles*", he calls the corpse "Milford Cubicle" and talks to him as if he's still alive. He digs up a corpse in his back yard in the episode "*Shore Leave*" that he believes is his younger brother Kenneth, who has returned from the "Great War". He talks to the corpse as if it is alive, and acts like he is returning to war when he kicks it back into the hole. He falls in love with a dog corpse in the episode "*Post Man*", mistaking it for an attractive woman. He takes the corpse on a date, but upon waking up in bed with it, he realizes they cannot see each other because he believes the corpse is half his age. He delivers the corpse to a hollowed out tree covered in black goo. A dog with a baby's head, referred to by Salad Fingers as the cadaver's mother, drags the corpse back into the tree.

He has various unusual interactions with other characters, in "*Present*", Salad Fingers sees Hubert Cumberdale on top of a cupboard. When he tells him to come down, Hubert Cumberdale melts into a hot black liquid. Jeremy Fisher, another finger puppet, appears out of the shadows, and Salad Fingers imagines that Jeremy gives him a horse toy. He later comes across a toilet outside, and thinks he hears something. He acts confused, defending himself, saying "You've got the wrong bloke, squire." He then flushes the toilet to "wash those bad thoughts away." On his way home, he sees a second Salad Fingers. The other Salad Fingers calls him Jeremy Fisher and talks to him. He says that "Jeremy" wants to take his daughter's virginity, which seems to be a continuation of what they were talking about in the bathroom. The other Salad Fingers says he's never tasted Jeremy before, and then the scene cuts to him eating the brain of the first Salad Fingers.

In "*Birthday*", he is throwing a birthday party for Hubert Cumberdale when the doorbell rings. As he investigates, he finds a large object protruding from the ground in front of his house. Bothered by its smooth consistency, he turns his attention his "guest", Milford Cubicle. Salad Fingers believes that Milford is sleeping and unable to wake up, so he leaves to find the doctor, telling his horse toy Horace to watch his house while he's gone. He discovers a bladed finger puppet, Dr. Papanak, and sits down for a check-up. When Dr. Papanak bites him unexpectedly, Salad Fingers tosses it in response to the pain, and it hits a horse. Salad Fingers consoles the animal by saying to relax "while the Doctor eats your blood". Then, Salad Fingers awakens, assuming he slept for weeks. Upon his return, he discovers additional horses in his home, including a few packed into his cabinets. He is shocked to discover that the horses devoured Milford Cubicle's body, leaving only the skeleton. He drives the horses away and rediscovers the pole in front of his residence. He accuses it of inviting the horses, but when he sees the guests, other Salad Fingers, seated at a table, he forgets the incident. The clones consume organs with ferocity. As he takes a seat, the pole with the birthday present on top retracts into the earth. He eagerly opens it and discovers a hat made of human flesh.

In the episode "*Glass Brother*", he sews human flesh together on Hubert Cumberdale. Later, Hubert Cumberdale comes to life. Salad Fingers communicates with his abusive relatives, the Glass Mother and Glass Brother, who reside in the mirror world, via a mirror. They verbally abuse him, force Salad Fingers to consume a dish that induces vomiting, and abduct Hubert Cumberdale. By sliding through a puddle, Salad Fingers enters the Mirror World. He rescues Hubert Cumberdale while Glass Brother and Glass Mother sleep. While the two were sleeping, Salad Fingers escaped. They attempt to access the world of Salad Fingers, but Salad Fingers pushes them away. Salad Fingers destroys the mirror in response to Glass Mother's threat. As she shouts at him through the final fragment of glass, Salad Fingers cuts himself with the shard, scatters his blood on it, and seals her in a small box.

Alloy refuses to give it to him, starting a fight. In the second fight, Salad Fingers is looking for the stinging nettle plant to enjoy the feeling when the caretaker of the garden, Samurai Asshole, attacks him. In the third fight, Alien Hominid crashes his ship in a nearby town. Salad Fingers tries to make friends with him, but Alien Hominid feels threatened by him and attacks. In the final part of his story, Salad Fingers discovers P-Bot, a being made entirely of metal. Salad Fingers wants to take him home, but P-Bot fights back.

He does not care about being the ruler of the portal and leaves with P-Bot's dead body.
