While on a Spanish-speaking Mormon mission, my companion and I began making small talk with a twenty-something
Hispanic man we didn't know. While we were talking, a woman came out of the house. The man said
something to her, and my companion asked who she was. When the man said
it was his girlfriend, my companion, intending a platitude equivalent to
"Oh, cool!" said "Que buena!" which is more like, "Wow, she's hot!"
The man then glowered and asked what that was supposed to mean. After a quick explanation, we ended the encounter quickly
and left.
