while and whilst aren't synonyms

while is a measurement of time, whilst is a word for when things happen simultaneously

the US just decided to use one word for both which okay cool I guess, I don't know where the weird attitude about it comes from tho

fascinating stuff here and I am being serious

also I was probably thinking of which instead of while when I made that bad writing quip but I still maintain both words are lazy

I'm now going to bitch about actual bad grammar.

Anyone who types out "should of" rather than "should have" or even "should've" needs to be slapped. Vigorously.

I once tried making fun of a British person for using the word "whilst" and they were like "what, it's a normal word that people use" and I felt like an idiot, thanks SA

“whilst” is in the group of interstitial words british grammar texts refer to as a “johnny-johnny-on-the-quill”
