Hi everyone!
Could you kindly show me a natural use of the phrase "Use your brain"?
I made up one, but I'm not sure if it's fine.
The following is a conversation between a baseball player and his coach.
Player: (After being struck out three times in a row.) I'm so sorry, boss. But his fastball is too fast.
Coach: Use your brain, ass hole! How many times do I have to tell you to wait the curb ball?
Thank you

| Yes. Except that the coach would probably not call one of his players "a s s h o l e", which is rude, provocative, and no way to address a multi-millionaire. And it's "curve ball". |
