Facebook Made A MAJOR Change To Comments & People Have Gone BONKERS

Our prayers are answered.

Sometimes we find ourselves in the midst of a Facebook comment war, where we are trying to come up with the wittiest come backs to our besties. 

Yet, sometimes words and pics alone just ain't enough to communicate what we mean. 

Ya feel us? 

Well, Facebook is about to test a new function in the comments section and we are all for it!

You all know that you can post GIFs into the comment section, because y'all are livin' in 2017. 

BUT! What you didn't know is that Facebook is about to make things a whole lot easier for you!

Now, instead of having to scroll through the web to find the perfect GIF for a situation, copying the link and heading back to FB to post it - which by the time you do this, you have missed your golden moment of comeback fame - the company will now be testing a GIF button, similar to that in Messenger. 

What's this mean? You are only a click away from posting the best reply EVER!

 

A Facebook representative has stated, "Everyone loves a good GIF and we know that people want to be able to use them in comments. So we’re about to start testing the ability to add GIFs to comments and we'll share more when we can, but for now we repeat that this is just a test."

The exact timing for the trial will be confirmed soon. 

Prepare yourselves for the GIF spamming...
