What is the point of owning a serval? I have 3 short-hair domestics. At no point have I ever wished they were bigger, wilder, less predictable, more aggressive, more likely to scratch/bite, fight, or send me or a houseguest to the ER. Is it just that they are rare and people feel cool owning them? Do they actually make good pets?

This is the single most depressing item ever marketed. It's the magic of nostalgia for the innocence of childhood, mixed with the cheap booze needed to numb the pain of your 3rd failed marriage, crushing debt, and shitty 60hr/week job. The kid who first tipped the sharp plastic edge of the bottle to their anticipating lips is now the broken mid-lifer grimly drinking alone from a dented can in the Walmart parking lot.
