I included this in my op-ed “ Going Clear : 40 Days , 40 Nights Without Grindr ,” but it deserves getting repeated . If someone offers you a sip of their Gatorade , it ’ s probably filled with G , also known as GBH , which is short for gamma-hydroxybutyrate — a club drug that is easy to overdose on and lethal when mixed with alcohol .
The most common form of G appears as a clear liquid , and you only need a few drops to feel the affects . Therefore it is impossible to determine whether or not a Gatorade bottle or water bottle has G in it , or how much . An overdose on G can make you very sick and land you in the Emergency Room . A bad overdose can land you in the morgue . The best way to avoid G is to bring ( or buy ) your own drink and watch over it throughout the night
