Since I have given up on soda pop again, Dr. Kobb, I haven't paid much attention, but in my work in convenience stores and supermarkets, I can't recall seeing it recently.
I am now a bit past reading half of the reviews of the "nurse" films in the zine.

Mellow Yellow was another version of Mountain Dew. My daily routine in the past was, after breakfast a Little Debbie Chocolate Brownie for dessert along with a Mountain Dew. But, I haven't done that in a few years, and am uncertain of the last time I drank any soda pop.

Yeah, I recall it being sweeter than The Dew, but it's been eons. I think it had less caffeine? I am to that point in my life where a Little Debbie Chocolate Brownie and Mountain Dew for dessert after breakfast would be the death of me.

I see Mello Yello from time to time, but I haven't actually drunk it in a long time. I remember liking the idea of it because I took that the Yello was supposed to indicate that it was extra lemony and I've always been a lemon fan. I don't remember whether the taste vindicated that idea.

This is probably the wrong crowd to ask about this, but I'll throw it out there anyway. I'm trying to identify a movie sound bite that's on an album I've been listening to lately. The one thing I can say with almost complete certainty is that it's one of the countless Tarantino knockoffs we were bombarded with in the mid-to-late '90s (a genre that I don't imagine played a particularly large role in the lives of anyone here). It's during a heist or a hold-up or something and this knucklehead is screaming at a woman because she just tripped the alarm. "You called the cops, you stupid fucked up bitch!" Most of his dialogue, in fact, involves variations on "stupid fucked up bitch." Oddly, the woman in question (I'm assuming, since it's audio) seems to be rather nuttily giggling about the whole situation. The idiot screams to his partners about how she's seen his face, they try to calm him down, and as the guitars come in and amp up, she screams and there's a barrage of gunfire. For what it's worth, the screaming idiot refers to one of his partners as "Watt" or "Wyatt" or something.
I realize how utterly this sounds like a generic example of the genre in question, like blindingly so, but I figured I'd give it a shot. Granted it's no "I Squirted, etc."

Haven't found you an answer yet, but if you Google (or in this case Bing)" You called the cops, you stupid fucked up bitch." Your post is the 3rd result.

Thanks, folks. That's actually really funny, because I have a friend who is (or was anyway, I don't know what he's up to nowadays) a filmmaker who had another friend who was some kind of event planner in the city, and this event planner guy, who I met four or five times, was always going on about that movie, specifically that the guy who made it was a fucking moron and asshole and owed him money and had stolen some idea from him, and like that.

Yesterday at lunch I walked the mall, and walked into Spencer's. How the hell does that store stay open? It's the exact same place it was back in the 1970's.

I heard that Spirit Halloween is already open at it's usual seasonal location here (I think Spenser's owns Spirit)! What was the name of that goth/industrial chain store that popped up in malls everywhere there in the very early 2000"s? I remember they had oodles of Invader Zim goodies.

I don't know what companies have survived the mess we're in right now, but they were in business pre-COVID.

I remember liking the idea of it because I took that the Yello was supposed to indicate that it was extra lemony and I've always been a lemon fan. I don't remember whether the taste vindicated that idea. It did have a tarter and more defined citrus flavor than Mountain Dew, as I recall (I haven't tasted it in years, either), but I'm not sure I would pin it down to lemon specifically.

I do feel that their peach flavor is far more peachy than the lemon is lemony.

Is chocolate getting in the way of my having six-pack abs?
