There is scene where a character has a baby pig in a jar of formaldehyde which they proceed to carry around. It’s never mentioned, nor is it seen again.

A squid/octopus thing is cooked alive. It's so fake-looking that it looks like a joke -- and that's the joke.

Nobody dies, but in a scene a character contemplates suicide by hanging and after deciding not to is accidentally pushed off the ledge. It’s intended as a comedic bit.

The scene shows the main character getting into his shower. There is no violence or nudity. The camera shows the shower being turned on, then focuses on the character's feet as his underwear falls to his feet and then he steps into the shower with his socks on.

There are numerous scenes where the main character considers suicide via various means (hanging, jumping off an overpass, etc.). It’s used as running gag through the film.

There is implied s*x but no sexual acts are shown. The scene shows a young man and his girlfriend, under a blanket, in the back of a car. They talk about virginity, and then the camera cuts to the outside of the vehicle but you can hear discussion between the characters. There is no nudity, no foul language, and no sexual noises.

There are three mild car accidents with no injuries. In one scene, the main character backs into another vehicle. In another scene, he rear-ends the same vehicle. Then another scene features the main character losing control of his vehicle and it landing in a shallow duck pond. There is no blood, gore, or injury, nor is there significant damage to the vehicle.
