Is there a butt emoji? It should expand to (_*_) the same way ⇒ does to =>.

For example, we'd have a bunch of big rear end thread-local objects, and every time we updated a field we'd have to copy the entire object because Everything Must Be Immutable Just Like In Haskell, and then we'd wonder why the garbage collector was running too often.

There's no reason to copy an entire object around just to maintain immutability. What kinds of objects were these?
