Wikipedia has an unsourced allegation that "The UNIX-HATERS Handbook" came with a barf bag in the back cover [1]. The book itself is an amusing glimpse into computing history even if it is rather dated and polemic.

I’m not sure it’s an “allegation” when tens of thousands of us have a copy with said barf bag.
