Bag Monster

OK, Bag Monster is a moronic name, but Monster has become a catch-all phrase for "Hey, this will help you do something" This section will help you find the bags you're looking for (like you're really looking for them). Leaving everything blank will retrieve a list of all bags, however that may cause the page to load slowly.

C++ Barf Bag

Print or Image Color: Black

It says, "Virtually in a Bag by Itself", but a more C++ like catchphrase would be "Virtually in a Class by Itself".

C++ Barf Bag

Much like the other C++ bag except this bag originates from Union Camp, whatever that is. According to bag leviathan Michael Hale, "Union Camp is a fairly large paper manufacturer that makes all kinds of paper products"

Peter Brown says that CAAC stands for "China Airlines Always Cancels" instead of "Civil Aviation Administration of China"

Cabo Verde Airlines (TACV)

Approximate Vintage: 2001
Received From: Andy Rudge
Print or Image Color: Black, Navy, White
Background / Bag Color: Navy
What a design pleasure this bag is! It's multi-colored and shows a design that looks like it goes right off the page, wrapping onto the back. However it does not do so. It eye candy that leaves you wanting more. Kudos to Cabo Verde Airlines! (Oddly enough, there is no green on a Cabo Verde bag)

Cabo Verde Airlines (TACV)

Reduced the bag from graphic grandeur to a small, understated bag. Logo now looks like it was either crossed out or is the square root of ACV.

This is a really cool bag because it's covered in musical instruments. I'm not sure why though. Maybe music soothes the stomach?

The bird on the front of the bag has 3 stripes on it. Otherwise, I have no witty commentary about this bag.

Cairo Airport

Approximate Vintage: 1970
Received From: Andrew Angel
Print or Image Color: Blue
Background / Bag Color: Brown
This bag says "Aviation Services Co." on it. I'm not really sure what it refers to but it's not a shop as the bag is lined to prevent leaks. This bag has a sexy Egyptian woman on it apparently serving up some awful airplane food.

Cal Air International

Received From: Daniel Wilson

Calgary Stampede

Approximate Vintage: 2002
Received From: Michelle Dubois
Print or Image Color: Black, Red
Background / Bag Color: White
In 2002, the Calgary Stampede, in order to promote its Midway, had an advertising agency create these bags. I'm not sure what that says about the food they had there if they have to distribute barf bags. Unfortunately, the bag is really just a sticker on an Air Canada bag.

Cambodia Angkor Air

Cambodia Bayon Airlines

This bag features an abstract Angor Wat and no language other than English, meaning that actual Cambodians don't fly on this carrier.

Cameroon Airlines

Received From: Bruce Kelly

Enormous bag that wouldn't completely fit on my scanner. Has a creepy font that looks like a waveform that's been subject to signal clipping because the gain is too high for the output device. Non-French speakers might be tempted to think that the French word 'pliez', meaning 'fold' is a Cameroonian misspelling of 'please'.

I always enjoy a bag that's printed landscape instead of portrait. Bold colors and fonts make this bag a winner.

Canada 3000

This bag almost snuck by me. It looks so familiar, yet I didn't have it. However Stuart was kind enough to send it to me despite the fact that his vindictive ex threw away many of his bags. Hell, why didn't she just castrate him?

Cannibal Ferox

Approximate Vintage: 1980
Received From: Tom Bullock
Print or Image Color: Red
Background / Bag Color: White
This bag was distributed at a movie by the same name. The bag claims that it is "Positively The Most VIOLENT Film Ever Made!". The film is also "Guaranteed to Upset Your Stomach!!!". I love this bag. Now the odd thing about this bag is side 2 where, if you look closely enough, you find out that the bag is renewable, recyclable, and REUSABLE!! Film supposedly dated 1980, but the bag says Copyright 1997.

Movie Activist and Barf Buff (and cannibalism expert) Mark Monastyrski says, Cannibal Ferox "(now available on video and special edition DVD as 'Make Them Die Slowly') was originally released in the early 80s, but was recently re-released by Grindhouse (hence the newer copyright date) as a side note, the film is banned in Britian and is just as violent and sleazy as its reputation. When Grindhouse re-released CF theatrically and to video/DVD, they switched the title back to "Cannibal Ferox" but kept "Make them die slowly" as the film's tagline."

Now the odd thing about this bag is the bottom not only tells you that the bag is renewable, recyclable, and REUSABLE, but you're supposed to "Check to see if bag recycling facilities exist in your area". Well, I'll get right on that.

Film supposedly dated 1980, but the bag says Copyright 1997. Bruce Kelly, in a fit of obsession, tracked down the bag's designer to find this. He confirmed that only the two varieties exist.

Caribair (Puerto Rico)

Background / Bag Color: White
This bag is from the defunct Puerto Rican Caribair, not the Dominican airline. We are lucky that they printed "Flying the Caribbean for 23 years" on the bag so that it can be dated to 1971. Caribair started operations (under this name) in 1948. Adding 23 years means the bag was issued in 1971.

Huge bird of paradise graces this plastic bag that's apparently from some Arab country. On the bag, the tape mechanism has the enigmatic 24/7/2003, which is either around-the-clock 2003 times, or the date on which it was produced.

Castle Freak

Approximate Vintage: 1995
Received From: Xaver Wittmann
Print or Image Color: Red
Background / Bag Color: White
Germany jumps on the splatterfest sickbag idea with Stuart Gordon's Castle Freak. Schizophrenic bag that can't decide whether it wants to be German or English. I am only guessing that the bag's date is 1995 because if you hold it up to the light, you can barely see '10/95' printed in the gusset.

Cat Cocos Seychellen Ferry

Received From: Jan Jendrzejek
Print or Image Color: Blue
Background / Bag Color: White
This is my favorite ferry bag from all of the Seychelles. I'm not sure why there printed 4 molars atop a splat of vomit, but they did. Confusion arises if you look at the back of the bag, which shows a cartoon airplane with the words "Air Supply avaition products", a Singaporean company.

In their tireless effort to improve their product, Cathay Pacific adds Fold Lines to the back, but it would take precise skills that only people who paint your name on rice possess, to be able to successfully make two folds that are only 3/8" apart.

It's the smae happy plane with a moustache and an American football helmet (if you think the Cebu Pacific logo looks like a moustache, that is). This bag was updated for 2008 by adding the text, "Save the Earth. Use this bag only when necessary". I think they mean that you reduce waste by only using the bag to throw up in, and not as a hand puppet or whatever.

While I admit this is really a litter bag more than a car-sickness bag, you really need to check out the copy printed on this thing. It's an anti-litter message, which is pretty cool, but it has to be the most moronic pabulum ever printed. I mean they have a 4 character dialogue with a Mrs. Ima Tissue, Mr. Orange Peel, Mr. Candiwrap, and General Refuse. It's more moronic than the Snorkel Bob bag, but at least Snorkel Bob is intended to be that way.

Ill advised use of English language on back of bag seems to indicate that bag should be left open AFTER use. Also, do not adjust your screen. The back (or the striped front, depending upon your perspective) is printed upside-down.

I define the top of the bag as the where the opening is. By that criteria, this bag is printed upside down. If you orient the bag so that you can read it, the contents will spill on you. Oops!

Also, while some bags are really quite good at creating an abstract airplane out of their logo, China Airlines fails miserably by creating a Klingon Battle Cruiser with a snowflake exhaust.

This bag sure looks a lot like a CAAC bag, but to my Gringo eyes, who knows? Any verification out there? Odd to see a plane flying right through a cumulo-nimbus thunderhead. Also, somebody's phone number seems to be printed on this bag.

Bag Studs Paul K-H Wang, and YL Tan solve the mystery and identify this bag as China Civil Aviation. YL elaborates: The words on the bag are:

The bag is from Sichuan, China. I don't think the numbers are someone's telephone number, more likely the printing batch code.
