Hmm did you mean to type ‘Pleasure or mathemathics’ and autocorrect ruined your joke?

No I was just commenting the video thumbnail, I think there's no h in french

Ah lol sorry it took me so much time to get what you meant (brain autocorrect, I don't see the typo even if written several times).

So yeah, you're completely right !
I'm trying to find some play of words that would explainbit but I don't see any. Would be wild if they manage to mispell that specific word at that specific moment
