Can someone tell me what's making this page break in Firefox?

Which text?

The text that's under the image to the right, the gap isn't as big now
though since I made a few changes with the help I got.

You have not removed the <br>s from the text starting with "Adult Swim's
game". Looks like dog poo.
Your use of tables for layout has come back to haunt you on this one.
(Even in my darkest days of yore did I ever attempt a layout this complex
with tables.)
The large gap between the bottom of the Viva Caligula image and the
"Viva Caligula never forgets a friend" text is due to a rowspan somewhere.
Likely changing a rowspan will have a cascade effect on your layout where
you fix one thing and it breaks another.
Good luck.

I highly recommend the Web Developer extension

Yeah, I'm still sifting through the links posted and stuff I'm reading
on google. When you say tables are naughty, do you mean I should do a
css layout? I was looking into that earlier when I wanted to create a
more fluid page for visitors.

Yes. There is nothing about your layout that is particularly difficult
for a fluid layout. 3 columns can be a little tricky but mostly for
display in a narrow viewport.
