Cruel Ugliness Cures

The Genuine Ugly Bag

I can't believe the Ugly Bag is a real product.

The Genuine Ugly Bag in the "Heavy Duty for Extra Ugliness" variety, has a sketch of a woman on it, with petite facial features and a retro winged haircut.

"This ugly bag is guaranteed to cure ugliness," the bag reads.

"Directions: Open bag and place over head of ugly person with face side facing forward. Instantly creates beauty where there is none.

"Note: For extra ugly persons, two bags may be necessary in case one breaks."

We've all heard jokes about butter faces (everything is hot about her, but her face) but being handed one of these cruel paper baggies would be even more offensive than being called a nasty name. Why? Because someone was willing to pay close to $2 for you to hide your face under a BAG!
