A suicide booth is a fictional machine from the Japanese comic Battle Angel Alita and the American animated series Futurama.
In the world of Futurama, suicide booths were invented somewhere between 2005 and 2008. Since 2008 America's most important brand of suicide booths is Stop'n'Drop. Stop'n'Drop suicide booths have two modes of death: quick and painless, and slow and horrible. A suicide in a suicide booth usually costs 25 cents.
The first appearance of a suicide booth in Futurama is in the first episode, in which Bender Bending Rodriguez wants to use it, after he had found out the girders he used to bend were used for suicide booths. After meeting Philip J. Fry, who at first mistook a suicide booth for a phone booth, he decides not to commit suicide.
