Also, if there hadn't been a limper behind I would have 3-bet preflop.

This is especially a bad idea at 2/4 and similar limits, and something I wouldn't get in the habit of doing. Generally 3-betting smallish pocket pairs from the blinds is an expensive habit, though there are opponents I will do it against, I think there are better lines given your relative lack of preflop equity with a hand like 44.

I just noticed there is no section in SSHE on playing like an aggro nutjob versus button steals. Tightening up in the blinds now and I think its going to lower my variance big time and save a lot of bets.

With one limper in it is unlikely that the button's raise is just an out and out steal attempt. He probably has a little something here. Another good reason to just call these position raises vs 3-betting is it gives you the chance to check/raise a good flop and lead the turn.
