there are some challenges / punishments surrounding bad parenting, such as Q's baseball punishment, where he publicly berates a child actor acting as his daughter.

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.

This is what I got through research I’ve only seen up to S4E11 so it might not be accurate. Also in a certain episode Q? V* because he or someone eats a sandwich out of a bin.

S2E1 punishment
S2E20 murr nude
S3E27 after drinking pool water Sal violently dry heaves
S5E4 Q laughs hard
S5E8 last challenge
S6E1 Q laughs hard
S6E19 punishment
S9E20
S9E22 fake V


Flatfoot the pirate - punishment
Stare master
Boot and rally

(Also in the episode called car sick nobody actually gets car sick but it it’s very disgusting and Q looks very nauseous)

In S1 during the challenge where they’re news reporters they ask Sal to drool, it’s pretty gross

S5E22 Ash Clown: At 2:57 Joe asks Sal to spit shine glasses, skip to 3:13 if you don’t wanna see it. They ask him to do it again after that but he doesn’t.

There have also been a couple times one of the jokers will accidentally spit on Sal while talking and it grosses him out but I don’t think you see the spit

Sort of? In S4E26 Doomed They make Murr believe that they burned his childhood blanket, and then tell him that that one was fake and they burn another one that he thinks is the real one
Murr later confirmed on twitter that both were fake and his real childhood blanket is okay

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.
