Validation

I am playing a reality-based, horror GURPS game. My character (based off me) has taken Gadgeteer. Once per session I can have whatever it is that I need at the time. Even if I've been searched and had everything taken immediately previous. GURPS is officially > DnD.

I may now no longer take any crap about complaining about the commute between the apartment and campus. I in the week I've been here, I've had to make that commute at least 20 times. Originally I was just worried about the time it would take to go from the library, to my room, and back, and my family told me off about that, now I really AM fed up with the distance. Not only is net elevation change MUCH greater than last year (INCLUDING time spend in the goddamned elevator) the FINAL elevation change is greater!

Worse, you can't go straight ANYWHERE. EVERY SINGLE BUILDING POSSIBLE IS PLACED EXACTLY IN THE WAY. Inevitably, whatever path I take, I've gone at least twice as far as I would have last year.

Now, I don't mean to say I'm fed up or anything. Honestly, I like the amount of exercise I'm getting, and I can deal with the time it takes. Eventually I'm not going to be late for any of my classes. What I am saying is that anybody who wants to give me crap for complaining about this can shove it.

It's hot, I'm tired, and I've already gone to and from campus three times. Up and down a big-ass hill.
