Originating in the Northeast region of the United States, the slang term "butter" refers to an item or situation that is considered 'cool' or pleasing to the eye. Sometimes, one might use the term "churned butter" to indicate something that is especially cool or pleasing to the eye. These two slang terms aren't very popular yet and can sometimes be used to be sarcastic or while making a corny joke.

A type of handshake, involving contact with only the tips of the fingers. Twiddling motions are used to instigate this contact.
One person will extend his arm and say, "Yeah man, butter!" while twiddling his fingers with vigor. The second person will reciprocate, making only light contact with his/her own twiddling fingers.
Butter.
Butter.
