q or ctrl-z. Not rocket science, not like having to press Control-L (clear terminal) before quitting.

I tried your suggestion ":P"

It gave me:

    **warning** (netrw) using Pexplore or <s-up> improperly; see help for netrw-starstar

Also vanilla emacs.

I just wanted to try out org >_< !

ctrl-z does nothing (well it's mapped to undo in "easy" mode)

Throwing SIGKILL at something that's misbehaving is very satisfying, especially if you have a habit of personifying your computer a bit too much.

Regular SIGINT will probably do the same thing (or SIGQUIT) if that doesn’t work. It’s absurdly easy to create software that misbehaves after a ‘kill -9’, because the only real use for it is 60 seconds after starting the shutdown process for the rare program that just won’t exit.

Hit the power switch.

(In my youth, I definitely resorted to doing that more than once)
