Throwing up is never a pleasant experience, and vomit bags are never appealing enough to carry around for those who suffer from motion sickness, but the spew bag challenge is a hilarious attempt at dressing up the dreaded bag.
In a series of drawings by Australia-based 'mrs eaves' on her Tumblr blog, the ‘Spew Bag Challenge,’ the writer and illustrator designs some creative and gut-busting barf bags that are sure to amuse. Either in simple puns or turns of phrases, 'mrs eaves' turns some notable television or mainstream icons into such mini delights such as “Puke Nukem,” “Barf Funk,” and, my favorite, “Harajuke Hurls.”
The illustrations are drawn on plain white vomit bags with nothing but a black ink marker. Not that we normally find barf bags sold at shops, but these would certainly be a hit with any collector looking to spruce up their wall with an unusual item.
