Its one thing to run a campaign where there is no success for the PCs, no joy, and the GM thwarts the players at every turn. But it is quite another to take away their tug boat for a legitimate reason in the game. The gaming gods gave them the tug, the gaming gods take it away. In the words of Westley in The Princess Bride "Life IS pain your highness. Anyone who says otherwise is lying or trying to sell you something".
Well, even the Great Buddha said, "all life is suffering until one achieves Nirvana." Achieving Nirvana means transcending the the emotion of want.
