ReportSynopsis
A man pursues stand-up comedy encouraged by his fellow garbage man. Though his friend, who accompanies him on accordion, continues to tell him how great he is, he actually stinks. When the "comedian" grows a third arm out of his back, the friend uses this twist to get him signed up with a sleazy talent agent, and it begins to look like his career is on the move, even though his girlfriend has left him.

A television plays a Tom & Jerry-esque cartoon, but the animals die very graphic and gory deaths. The mouse is cut in half, and the cat is shot in the head.

A nurse sexually harasses a patient and asks him for sexual favors to pay his medical bills.
A man gropes a woman while she repeatedly asks him to stop. After a while of this, she inexplicably kisses him and they start making out.

A character molests a woman's corpse. The same character later sleeps with a group of women. The scene cuts away as they climb into bed and are about to have an orgy.

One of the main characters hangs out with and sleeps with a group of fat women, which is played as a joke, and they make fun of each other for "eating anything".

In one scene, a woman "plays" a line of people with dwarfism by tapping them on the head with a rod. The performance is bizarre and disturbing.

(SPOILERS) A character thinks he might have a tumor, and his friend suggests it's spine cancer, but it turns out to be a third arm growing out of his back.
