Need a lil' help
Anyone here who has lived through the wastelands of 2000's internet? I need suggestions of characters from FLASH animations from that era for a small thing that's not related to my patreon but I figured you guys might know some. Suggest any popular ones you know, and thanks!
What I grew up with; Weebl' n Bob, Homestarrunner, Salad Fingers, Foamy the Squirrel, Happy Tree friends.

Hyperboy. I can't believe it only just hit me, but Hyperboy is perfect
Well there is that one guy who was in Weird Al Yankovic flash music videos, specifically "Albuquerque"and "Everything You Know Is Wrong" There's Dim, Dan, and JT from the Decline of Video Games series but I think the preferred characters on that are Square Enix, Capcom, and Konami.
Do flash game videos count? Idk that's kinda weird but my siblings and I watched a lot of videos of creations on the game Line Rider (or Line Flyer) back in 2006. Some really crazy creations.
Eskimo Bob! Also, Foamy still exists and updates regularly.
Seconding Brad Neely, also Making Fiends (The web series if from 2010, idk about the Tv Show)
Cyanide & Happiness, OneyCartoons, Gonzossm
There's one that I remember, but I cannot remember the name of. It involves a group of like Five Guys and the main guy is a small guy in a red like wrestling suit with wrestlers mask and he has a Spanish accent
I think that's Strong Bad, from Homestar Runner
Ricepirate stuff?
Well, all these suggestions are pretty much my entire repertoire from that time period since I basically staarted getting into the internet only 7 years ago. (poor family) Oh and runescape
Anyone else remember that hampsterdance earworm?
DR. TRAN
Not sure if web comics with flash videos in them count, but Prequel: Making A Cat Cry The Adventure was what I spent a portion of my early 2000's reading. I'd also recommend checking New Grounds if you haven't already, lots of old animations and flash games (like the hentai games you played when no one was home.) Good taste in Homestar btw, best flash animation of the 2000's.
Can't have 2000's FLASH animation talk without bringing up Hot Diggity Demon. Jerry, Maxwell, and a slew of other awesome characters.
btw. I just remember this wonderful Korean flash animation called "There she is" I think there were five parts and the first one was called that and the story was really good. Basically a love story between cat and rabbit in a world where interracial relationships were forbidden.
Badger badger badger badger badger...
And since Christmas is coming better remember this versio <a href="https://youtu.be/B_pWTlN15bc" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/B_pWTlN15bc</a>
I just remember that hamster (or was it a gerbil) in a microwave oven. Oh! and those dancing badgers.
Pucca is the only other one that comes to mind
Ahhh that's true!
David Firth, creator of salad fingers, has a ton of great creations, I love Burnt Face Man!
Burnt Face man is my fav too, but I think they don't reach the same level of fame as salad fingers
