I'm an american who lives in colombia. I learned spanish here. The locals like it because I'm the only gringo they know that doesn't speak like a mexican or a spaniard. The bad thing is all my friends are street kids basically and I learned how to talk from them and watching gangster novellas. Needless to say my slang is a bit like the OP in the meme. I've gotten a few colombians to laugh instead of be frustrated or mad at me for my language because I dropped a phrase that they don't usually hear from gringos.
