Flash on firefox crashes GUI at random

Hey Y'all.
This is my first LinuxMint post on the forums. I searched the forums for a similar topic but to no avail. Recent Ubuntu-to-LMDE convert, and I'm running Cinnamon on a 64-bit system.
I recently updated my system, which I remember included flash and firefox updates, and it seems that my GUI crashes at random whenever I play a video on youtube. I can't swtich into another tty or kill x to restart my session. I usually rely on those backdoors to troubleshoot bugs. The only solution is to unplug my laptop to power it off, which is unideal. I mostly use my laptop to look at videos, so this problem is driving me nuts. Any ideas? Thanks guys!
