Homonym: Firecracker (Personality)
A firecracker is a small explosive device designed to produce a loud bang and colorful effects when ignited. Often used during celebrations like New Year's Eve and Independence Day, firecrackers come in various sizes and types, each creating different sounds and visual displays. They are typically made of a paper casing filled with gunpowder and other chemicals that create the desired effects.
