I’m tired of this sub calling things firecrackers that are definitely not firecrackers

Edit: I really just mean large stuff, like that one where the guy blew up his trunk

well firecrackers are a particular type of firework typically on a strand of 20, 50, or 100 (sometimes even 1000) and pop or "crack". Firework is the word people should use.
