Yes, but my wife stated it something like, "Voulez vous brains"? That
got a bigger reaction than calling me an ace. As I understand brain is
a F (or possibly VE2) slang word for crap.

I guess it is more a VE2 one bcoz to me it does not sound horrible at all ;o))
In fact, there is not such a F word. Depending of some variation due to some
accent, I can think for "brun" (brown) or "brin" ("a bit [of something]" or
"sprig"). So, maybe "brown" may be close to "crap" (!!) but well ...
But if your wife said "brain" with the English way to pronounce the word, I can
not find any F word of this kind.
It should be interesting to get in touch with your now sister-in-law to get the
exact explanation .. !
