If we could just edit our mistakes!

I have been sitting here thinking, and yes, I have been known to think sometimes, thank you very much.  It would be a wonderful thing, having an edit button in the comment section.  You know those mistakes that we make when commenting, and no matter how many times we read over what we believe to be an intelligent comment, we never see that mistake until after we hit the comment button, yes, you know the one, you have seen our mistakes, yet there is no edit button, why is that?

I dare say Triond, you know we sometimes type in too many words, like the time I typed in “the and the” consecutively, now if there had been an edit button, I wouldn’t have looked so foolish, not to mention the time I left out a few words, that made me look, well, unpolished for lack of a better word, it’s just that sometimes my brain is thinking faster than my typing.

One more thing, for Pete’s sake, I would just like to forget about the time I used the wrong name while commenting, now, if there had been an edit button, I could have saved face.  Do you see where I’m going with this, “good”, now how about that edit button!

    Would it be wonderful to fix all those mistakes, I make a boo boo every once in awhile and there’s no way to undo it. It’s there for everyone to see.

    LOL. I here you Shirley! I’ve made many silly mistakes in my comments. And many people don’t know they’ve made mistakes – they just hurry along in their commenting.

    That’s a wonderful idea, I do it all the time and it’s too late after you press submit.

    Yes it would most certainly be a benefit.

    Lol, think we’ve all been down this track! I admit I am now far more cautious and read my comment carefully before pressing that button. Having said that, Murphy’s Law says this comment will contain a huge error :-)
