Shirley Temples are the "We're getting crazy tonight!" drink of our youths.

With an overload of sugar and containing several pungent flavors as well as a neon red hue, we knew our night was about to go down with a Shirley Temple.

If only we'd had a service to rate our Shirley Temples back in the day....


Thankfully kids of today will be afforded that service and will never know the same hardship we did.

Meet six-year-old Kelly from Connecticut—your Shirley Temple King.

Kelly, besides being adorable, is a tough Shirley Temple critic.

His criteria include grenadine to ginger ale ratios and the amount of present maraschino cherries.

Each video is tagged with a number of cherries that rates the Shirley Temple out of ten.

Kelly's instagram picked up steam after a tweet featuring his review of a Shirley Temple at Longhorn Steakhouse went viral.

How could people not immediately start adoring this Shirley Temple treasure?



Longhorn Steakhouse scored poorly due to their lack of cherries.

But promised to make it up to the Shirley Temple King.

Whilst people continued to become fans of Kelly.





Kelly is most certainly not easily impressed.

The highest rated Shirley Temple on his channel was the one he made himself.

Take note purveyors of Shirley Temples!





According to the king, the ideal Shirley Temple contains "three to four ice cubes, glass cup, a whole can of ginger ale, just enough grenadine, three cherries and an extra-long straw."

After receiving over 123K followers in under 24 hours, he was blown away.

"Epic reviews to come," promises the King.

We are all sitting by our computers waiting.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
