The mention of the 90s brings a flood of nostalgic memories for people on the internet. The memories of childhood, growing up years and the golden teenage we spent at school can be overwhelming. As we move to the complex life issues and daily problems, the sheer mention just of childhood and school liberates us for a moment. So, when a Twitter page shared a photo of the eraser that could supposedly erase the ink, netizens were taken on a walk down the memory lane.

While the red part of the eraser was meant for soft pages and the blue part had to be used on thick sheets, looks like it did not work anyway for most of the users. Sharing his story a user wrote, "80's kids used to think the red part could erase teachers marks in red pen. The experiment didn't end well is all I can say."

But for some, the eraser actually worked. So, while most of the users said that the eraser working on ink was a rumour, one user had a different story to tell.
