I don’t know where the phrase comes from, but everybody has “buttons”. You push ‘em and you get a reaction.
Some people are bristling with clearly marked buttons, marked “press here to make me relax”, “press here to make me angry”, “press here to make me horny”.
Most people’s buttons aren’t labeled and you just have to try pressing them.
Some people are like a puzzle box where some buttons only work as part of certain sequences.
Some people are like playing Minesweeper, all the buttons look the same until you press one and find out if you are out.
A friend is someone who knows where your buttons are and knows when not to press them.

That’s really quite profound.
How right you are! I reckon you need to get yourself published with all this wisdom you keep coming out with; I find myself nodding and agreeing with you on almost every occasion you choose to enlighten us on some theory or other. More! More!
“Most people’s buttons aren’t labeled and you just have to try pressing them.”
I think that’s where we differ… I would say: Most people’s buttons aren’t labeled so you mostly avoid accidentally pressing them.
