These days, it’s not uncommon to come across numerous instances of men employing cheesy pickup lines to make an impression on women, and these stories often find their way onto the internet. In a recent incident, a woman shared her encounter with a man’s pickup line that was excessively flattering and yet intriguing on the micro-blogging site ‘X.’ Surprisingly, it wasn’t reminiscent of a childhood crush, but the mention of a ‘pencil’ managed to transport the internet back to those school days, leaving everyone in stitches.

In the viral post, the user known as @gunnergworl posted a picture of a note she received from a man who claimed she had dropped it. He wrote, “Tum pensil (pencil) ho kya? Dur se Apsara dikh rahi ho…” with a smiley emoji at the end. After all, who would have anticipated that the beloved Apsara Pencils, cherished by many Indians, would make a cameo in such a scenario? It’s safe to say that the man’s clever move garnered much attention on social media.
