I keep a 150 Ohm 2W resistor with a lead and clip on one end for this purpose. Low enough Ohms to discharge quickly but little or no sparking. 2W because it's big enough to handle and the leads are heavy duty. Not discharging CRTs though. Mainly switching power supplies, making sure the primary side isn't charged up before I start testing capacitors with my ESR meter.
