how do i.....?

You can drag to the trash or you can use an app like app zapper, which kicks the ass of the apps.

Drag it to the Trash icon on the Dock.

To manually remove an application and all associated files:

1. Launch Finder and search for the app name (hopefully unique, such as Skype)
2. You can narrow the search to specific folders or search your whole Mac
3. Searching "File Name" vs "Contents" usually provides better results.
4. Click the + button below the search term to add criteria
5. Click the "Album" drop-down and select "System files"
6. Click the "Don't include" and change to "include"
7. Sort by name, kind, date, etc. to identify components of the app, such as folders, .plist files, cache files. etc.
8. Delete all files and folders related to the app.
9. Don't empty your Trash until you've determined that everything is working OK, in case you need to restore something you deleted by accident.
10. A reboot might be necessary to completely remove some apps.

My vote is for AppZapper. It removes all evidence the application was ever installed.

But Finder doesn't make the cool ray gun sound when the App is Zapped.

Doing it yourself isn't that bad either, but I guess you refer to the present/present.

Sometimes you just have to lift yourself up, even if it is only the loo(ny bin) or that bicycle outside, waiting for you to zap around with it, even 4° C. ****, I still have to do that today.

Be glad you don't landed on LEXX though, unless you

Yes and yes. Like in Windows, you have to select what you want to copy, but instead of using the Control (CTRL) key you use the Command (CMD) key.
