How does one measure 3/4 cup butter without going mad?

Seriously. I don't use cup measurements often, but butter measured in a cup sounds ridiculous. What do I do?

OK. I don't know where I saw this but if you put 1/4 cup water into the measuring cup and then put in the chunks of butter until it hits the 1 cup line, you will have 3/4 cup butter. The butter and the water don't mix so just pour off the water and use the butter. It works for me.
