One press of a button and you can end your life with a swift injection of potassium chloride. That is the boast of Roger Kusch, once one of Germany’s most promising conservative politicians and now the improbable promoter of a mercy-killing machine.

Bender: “Listen, buddy, I’m in a hurry here. Let’s try for a twofer. Hehe.”
Suicide Booth: “Please select mode of death. Quick and painless or slow and horrible.”
Fry: “Yeah, I’d like to place a collect call?”
Suicide Booth: “You have selected slow and horrible.”
Bender: “Great choice!”

I wonder if this relates to the deliberate, hesitant pessimism in Germany.
