I notice that you have an AMD Radeon HD 7750 / R7 250E.  I'm getting the
same thing in Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty Tahr" on an AMD Radeon HD 7870, but
it's not restricted to Firefox.  I see it in other apps too, including
the terminal.  I've heard that it is fixed in more recent kernel/mesa
combinations such as those used in Ubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" but I'm
not able to test it at the moment?  Are you?

Title:
  Glitches in text rendering

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  From time to time a couple of characters in the text is rendered in a weird way.
  It's enough to select the offenting text or to change the tab in order to get the proper rendering.
  Please, refer to the attached screenshot fragment.
