We've all done it. Your friend uploads a picture of their new puppy, and you somehow manage to leave a comment congratulating them instead on their "new pappy."
So what do you do? Until now, the only thing Facebook would let you do to correct the error was delete the comment and start again.
But starting Thursday the site is also now offering the ability to edit your comment — and change that pappy back to the puppy you intended in the first place.
Facebook will also be showing the editing history for a comment so that subsequent commenters or likers have the full context of the conversation.
The editing ability went live on Thursday evening, and will be gradually rolling out to all Facebook users over the next few days.
Has the comment editing system kicked in for you yet? Let us know in the comments.
