    There's approximately 175.34 buttloads in a fuckton.

    Depends. Are we talking an Imperial Fuckton or a Metric Fuckton?

    Mine was measured in imperial. I don't know the conversion to metric though.

    There is a subtle difference...

    a shitload is larger than buttload but less than fuckton (not to be confused with a metric fucktonne which is actually equivalent to 1.2 fuckton)

    google:

    The exact amount of a "shitload" varies widely between context and culture. Here is the breakdown:

    Standard English Shitload = 1007
    Metric Shitload = 1000
    Baker's Shitload = 1008
    Binary Shitload = 1024

    of course there's the matter of how many shitloads in a buttload, or a fuckload:
    Standard English: Fuckload = 4 Buttloads = 8 Shitloads
    Metric: Fuckload = 10 Buttloads = 100 Shitloads
    Baker's: Fuckload = 5 Buttloads = 9 Shitloads
    Binary: Fuckload = 1024 Buttloads = 1048576 Shitloads

    I hope this ends some confusion.

    In addition, apparently there is some confusion as was recently addressed by the noble mblase as to where "assload" fits into this schema. Using interpolation of modern slang one could easily assume that one assload would be equivilent to one buttload. However further research into this subject has found that "assload" is actually a term with pre-C.E. origins, to a time when the term "ass" was used refer to a beast of burden. Hence, the assload was equivilent to what could be carted around by a single ass. Much like a cubit (a term refering to the length the forearm) this measure is inexact, and has passed into obscurity.
