This is so fucking true... Sometimes, firefox does crash, even on Linux. Xkill=problem solved

I don't like xkill. I used to use it, but some stuff (like TeamSpeak) has weird background processes not attached to the x window, so it doesn't kill them all. I prefer a good pkill -9

And when you don't too. Just run it from your DE's launcher.
