Drank the Kool Aid 

Long before any cult suicides, the phrase originally referred to the common practice of someone spiking the punch bowl with liquid LSD at large parties since the 1960’s. The practice was chronicled by Tom Wolfe in his 1968 best selling book, “The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test.”
Rumor has it that Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters just dosed the punch, so you’ll have to cancel work tomorrow since you just drank the Kool Aid.”
