Wouldn't law be the thing for Harvey to teach?

Definitely not sorry to be that guy, but Gotham is in the United States, and we say "math" not "maths."
Weird fact, as I was writing this my phone autocorrected "maths" as "Martha." I don't know how I feel about it.
Did you say... Martha?
I was gonna make the same point, but Bruce Wayne canonically studied at Cambridge and across Europe. No way he's going through that without at least using the two interchangeably.
So they just teach the one math then? Would explain why you can’t count to 24.
Hilarious, still underrated webcomic.
Yes, maths. It's the alternative short form of mathematics.
It's more of a British phrase although Numberphile did a deep dive on the root of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbZCECvoaTA.
Funny thing is as a canadian I've never heard anyone here use maths despite the queen's english
Agreed. I'm British and became a Canadian Citizen when I was 9 and moved back and forth a lot between the two countries.
When I moved back to the UK when I was 25 -- I actually had to get used to hearing and saying "maths". I remember going to school in Sheffield when I was 14-15 and I must have heard it there but it still shocked me as an adult.
Would actually be funny if it ended at the 3rd panel

Turns out, cutting out half the joke gives you half a joke.
Yay! Now it ends with a puncline the way jokes are supposed to. Definitely way funnier.
i learned recently that the entire anglosphere calls it maths, except for most of north america that calls it math.
now i can't stop seeing it everywhere. lol
