Google "raising skinny elephants is utterly boring" :)
But that's a last resort option(s) for shutting down safely when
the system in borked. As was already suggested, most of the time
all that's needed is to logout of X, and then relog in. If this
can't be done by your normal means (clicking on logout), then
Ctrl+Alt+Backspace will kill the X server, or halt or reboot the
system from there. I've never needed to use Alt+SysRqr+s-e-i-u-b,
but it's a good thing to look up the process and remember that
goofy phrase ;)
