Welp, just like the good ole’ Tide Pods Challenge from 2018, another bizarre trend is taking over the youth of America: BORGs. College students across the country are drinking “Black Out Rage Gallons.” But, what are they? And is there ANY benefit to them? Grab your straw and let’s find out!

you’ll never be done covering stupid tik tok trends MatPat
Matpat is great at keeping his viewers safe and entertained while telling dad jokes in the process
honestly just using a non-caffinated drink mix and a smaller container would fix this entirely. im not exactly a partygoer but i can see the good intent behind it to keep yourself safe
When I was in college my friends and I made my borg with caffeine-free kool aid because a very nice nurse on campus had told us the dangers of caffeine with alcohol I’m very happy that we were told this before something bad happened
Can I just say thank you? I feel like you grabbing our attention saying how dangerous is the borg, then explaning that spike drinks are a huge deal is really important. I really appreciate it that you are always trying to make the world a better place! ( One diet coke at the time! )
I was honestly shocked to hear the recipe you said, because when I had seen a TikTok about it a few months ago the recipe they gave was only a cup of alcohol. And a whole bottle contains 3.17 cups so that’s an insane upscale
I like the idea that if you don’t want to drink alcohol and instead can put juice and water etc in these bottles is a good idea. But also it’s a very sad idea to think that’s what you have to do to save yourself from getting you’re drink spiked.
I think we could do with changing people’s mindset that you CAN have fun without too much , or no alcohol when going out to parties etc it’s been imbedded in our heads for generations and I think things need to change for everyones safety.
I agree that this is great for regulating your consumption and guarding against spiking, but it only works within a house party setting. No bar or club is going to allow you to bring your own massive jug of alcohol
Standout video. I didn’t realise it had got that bad. I feel so sad for the people who’ve been made victims of this. We gotta effect a societal change.
I like the idea behind the borg; the control over your drink. I feel like once people understand just how many drinks they’re putting in, they’ll be able to make a smarter decision.
Thank you Matt from the bottom of my heart and soul for talking about how often people are getting their drinks spiked. More people need to be talking about how bad it’s getting and how life altering it can be. Seriously thank you <3
I only saw it once, and I liked the idea so much that I made one. Mainly for the set amount of alcohol that you don’t exceed, and the hydration/electrolyte aspect that basically kills your hangover, which is interesting if you’re anywhere past your mid 20s.
You don’t have to go overborg with caffeine, I mean one regular red bull to a gallon won’t hurt at all
I actually love how refreshingly honest your point on the safe side of personal drinks at parties can be. The stats of spiked drinks in and out of college are absolutely terrifying, and the amount of mostly women that I know of that have been spiked and assaulted angers me to my core.
Kids, if youre gonna borg, do it safe, either limit the alcohol level or remove the caffeine side of it before doing so.
Let’s all just appreciate the work,editing,ideas,research and all the work mat pat and his team does just to entertain us
If you just make it in a Liter bottle instead of a gallon (using 1/4 the ingredients) and use non-caffeinated flavoring, it adds up to a reasonable all-evening party cocktail for one person, and no need to monitor your intake drunk because you planned it advance when you.were sober
I made one recently to the “standard recipe” for Mardi Gras parade day. It was shared between me and my spouse throughout the day (from like 9 am until about 10pm that night). I put 2 liquid iv in mine and honestly didn’t feel hungover the next day.
I honestly like this idea because you control how much or how little alcohol you have in it. And it also helps with the stigma of not drinking at college parties, if everyone has these jugs, no one really knows what you have in yours. It could be straight kool aid and no one would be the wiser.
I agree with the points MatPat laid out here. The safety from drugging and spiking is actually a really big positive of the borg that I wouldn’t have even considered at first. That being said, alcohol abuse is really something I hate seeing being risked. My brother’s been hospitalised and my dad’s been addicted, it’s scary stuff and borg just sounds like death in a jug
Matt’s suggestion about the Borg Baby I’d pretty spot on. On my college campus I’ve seen people utilizing the smaller 1/2 gallon bottles for their Borgs instead of the traditional full gallon. Additionally I highly doubt many people utilize the full bottle of vodka for their Borgs, usually it’s 1/4 a gallon vodka with 3/4 water. Additionally, I have never seen anyone use an ENTIRE bottle of Mio for their Borgs. That’s wayyy too expensive for us college students to be wasting like that.
Overall, I think it’s a good thing so long as you’re responsible with what you put into it. A borg with water, non-caffeinated flavoring (maybe actual Kool aid), and a set amount of alcohol that is well within your own limits might actually keep you safer imo.
I think the gallon size is to make sure you dont run out and can always say no to other peoples drink offers. You dont have to drink it all on the night. You could take it home & then bring it to the next party. It helps hide how little you’ve been drinking, particularly if you always start with one that is at most 3/4 full.
