Spoiler: A character gets both sleeves of his coat stuck on the seat of the vehicle he's driving and can no longer use his arms/hands to steer, which results in some misadventure.
Not exactly restrained, but a character is shown squished in the middle seat of a plane between two gross people who invade his space. This causes him some distress.

There are some taxidermied animals shown briefly in the background of a scene in a diner, but it's unlikely they were killed and prepared specifically for this movie.

Some taxidermy is used as decoration in a diner, including a bobcat, fox, and bird.

The other comment is an unnecessary spoiler. No one is burned alive in this movie. It's a comedy.

A short moment where one character is pretending to sell earrings and comments that it makes a group of teenagers older "maybe 18 or 19". Not directly sexualizing them but theres a little subtext.

No vomiting, but there is a part when Gus's son (the man driving them to the train station) spits and the spit has a funny colour. I found it slightly triggering but it really depends on the person.

Yes. There's one scene where a character spits a decent amount of what looks like tobacco stained saliva and then wipes his mouth with his hand before shaking the hand of another character. It's fairly brief, but it's gross.

There's one scene where the two main characters are pulled over by police. The interaction is neutral, though not beneficial to the main characters.

There is nothing to suggest that any character in this movie has any degree of autism. Any comments to the contrary should be ignored.

This movie contains tons of scratching, spitting, bodily noises, etc. It’s a fairly gross movie, and tough for a person with Misophonia.

Not exactly, But there's a scene where one of the main character is fighting with another main character, arguing about how annoying it is and how it could drive someone to do so. In another scene, main character almost gets run over by a car. Then in a later conversation between the car driver he said he wish he had.

One character is squished in between two people on a plane. One is overweight, both invade his space and lean/sleep on his shoulders.
Minor Spoiler: A character gets both sleeves of his coat stuck on levers on either side of the seat of the car he's driving. He's stuck and is unable to use his arms/hands to steer. This causes him to become very distressed.

No, but both main characters are shown distressed when they find out they have to share a small motel room bed. And (spoiler) they freak out even more and when they wake up cuddled together with the suggestion that one's hand is somewhere it shouldn't be on the other person's body. They act grossed out and pretend to be overtly macho after the fact. Very "no homo" behavior, but no slurs are ever used.

No sexual content. Just a scene with a young couple kissing heavily on a bus.
And, (spoiler) in one scene, the two main characters wake up cuddled in bed and it's said that one's hand is "between two pillows" but it's implied that the pillows are the body part of the other person. There's a "no homo" style freakout afterwards.
