Sad moments? What sad moments? Facebook is doing all it can to make sure users never see a sad moment from their past when it comes down to the social network's "Year in Review" feature. 

What Facebook is doing will make sure that users will never be forced to dig into their sad songs library with tears running down. Makeup is now a mess; brave faces have transformed into a grueling mess with wrinkles everywhere. 

Facebook will make sure these things never happen to you. Well, for some, seeing happy moments is good enough to get the tears flowing like a waterfall. Anything that has to do with an ex or several exes for the year won't show up in the "Year in Review" feature, and we view this as a great move from the social network. 

"We won't show you photos where memorialized accounts or exes are tagged, or photos with people you've blocked or added to your On This Day preferences," according to a Facebook spokesperson talking with TechCrunch, explaining that 'Year in Review' will make use of the same filters as 'On This Day.' 

In addition to blocking all the sad moments, Facebook has added the ability for users to edit the photos they want to see. The option is now available, allowing users to replace an image with a different one on the fly. Furthermore, if Facebook removed an image you'd rather show up in the Year in Review stream, it is now possible to add it yourself. 

Facebook is hoping the filter works as intended, because it wouldn't want to find itself in the position of issuing another apology in regards to the same thing. 

The company has designed an entire business around users' experiences and memories, and it is hoping they will be there forever. With that in mind, Facebook will do what it takes to keep its users happy, especially during the festive season. 

To get a peek at your Year in Review pictures, take a look at them now and edit them based on your favorite moments.
