No but in episode 3 one of the guys holds his cat up by the scruff, which is actually really bad for cats and can be painful so kinda just immediately ruins the fun

For a punishment, one of the jokers has to stay at a playplace/daycare type place, and “find the smell” of someone who soiled their diaper. Multiple people are seen warily watching him, and it has an underlying creepiness vibe as the joker has to find a way to smell various young children.

In the episode entitled "Flatfoot the Pirate", Sal vomits during the punishment. He is forced to drink breast milk and throws up on his shirt. I know there's also vomit in one of the later seasons, it's in a challenge where one guy is interviewing a person in a room and there's a glass wall behind the person. The glass goes from being non-transparent to transparent and the guys behind the glass have to make the guy interviewing laugh. Sal does a bit where he is a magician and he spits a flow of vomit into a hat. Look away when you see Sal dressed like a magician, there's no audio but the liquid is gross. There's also a time in the earlier seasons when Q laughs too hard and vomits. I know that they're outside when this happens, but i don't know the season. This happens in another episode as well, this time they're inside. They mention it in the intro of this episode, i think the guy says "Is laughter really the best medicine for Q?" Sal also does dry heave and gag a lot throughout the series, which can be very triggering.

use of term "ps*cho"
they joke about twitches and tourette's and mock them.
repetitively referring to people at "psychopaths" which is not only said in a derogatory context, but it's also not a medical term.
makes fun of dyslexia
makes fun of speech impediments

in the episode "fe-mail (s3e23)", the punishment includes joe dressing in drag for a "beauty pageant" before it is revealed he is actually meant to give an electronics seminar. while the "inside jokes" version of this episode states that the joke of the punishment was meant to be him dressed fancily to give an electronics seminar, it comes off as a man in a dress joke.
