We all know those cute little computer symbols called "emoticons,"              
where  :) means a smile and :( is a frown.  Sometimes these are                 
 represented by :-) and :-( respectively.  Well, how about some                 
 "butticons"?                                                                   

 Here goes:                                                                     

  (_!_)      a regular butt                                                     

  (__!__)    a fat butt                                                         

  (!)        a tight butt                                                       

 (_._)      a flat butt                                                         

 (_^_)      a bubble butt                                                       

 (_*_)      a sore butt                                                         

  (_!__)     a lop-sided butt                                                   

  {_!_}       a swishy butt                                                     

  (_o_)      a butt that's been around                                          

  (_O_)     a butt that's been around even more                                 

  (_x_)     kiss my butt                                                        

 (_X_)     leave my butt alone                                                  

  (_zzz_)    a tired butt

 (_13_)     an unlucky butt                                                     

 [_._]   hard butt                                                              

 (_?_)  questionable butt

 (_$_)  expensive butt
