I don't know but somehow I have to think of a thornbush when looking at this character. Maybe because it looks so spiky. To make things interesting let's say this represents a burning thornbush talking to people. The burning thornbush talks to Charlie Chaplin (ch) in the elevator's bathroom (e4) and tells him what to do, but Charlie won't listen.
