My suggestion (and one I follow) is to log out and go elsewhere for a while. Take a long break. I've often found the posters, topics, "cllimate" that pissed me off were no longer evident a few months later.

That said, there isn't really a way to delete your account. You can change your password and close down the email you used to register. Doing so effectively means your account is gone to you.
