butt-ton

Whole darn lot

A butt-ton is a very large amount—an intensified, mildly vulgar variant of "a ton of" something: I have a butt-ton of work to do.

The word plays on buttload with similar effect, suggesting quantity too large to measure precisely.

Casual and humorous, used mainly in speech and informal writing.
