Button Men is a game. You need dice, and buttons. The buttons have the stats of your fighter on.

A range of SG 'button men' buttons would be cool, especially for the gamer geeks around. I doubt that people wearing different buttons to SG meets would interupt the Anal Fucking Dick Party for a quick round of beating people up, but you never know, eh?

The Cheapass games website has details about sets for button men, as well as a bunch of other games. (It feels weird to keep saying 'button men, but hey, I didn't invent the game.)

I suck at the photoshop, also at math, so I'm not going to kludge some poor unsuspecting SG's face onto a klunky button, but someone else might like to.

Around these parts it's slang for hitmen.

Intentional.
Just look at the names of some of the other Cheapass Games...

Bitin' Off Hedz
Devil Bunny Needs A Ham
One False Step for Mankind
Witch Trial
U.S. Patent Number 1
Lord of the Fries (This one is about zombies who work at a fast food restaurant and only have one brain between all of them.)

There was one called "Before I Kill You, Mr. Bond..." in which you are the villain and you have to taunt your captured hero as much as you can without him escaping, but I think they were sued over that...
