"Ebonite is a brand name for very hard rubber first obtained by vulcanizing natural rubber for prolonged periods. Besides natural rubber, Ebonite contains about 25–80% sulfur and linseed oil. Its name comes from its intended use as an artificial substitute for ebony wood.The material is known generically as hard rubber and has formerly been called vulcanite, although that name now refers to the mineral vulcanite."

Paddy Americans don’t say shite they say 💩, it just doesn’t sound right for us. To be fair, I thought it was an Irish thing.
