/Sounds like "KEH" (as in "kept") + "boh" (as in "boat") + "LOO" (as in "loop") + "doh" (as in "door")/
An Argentine expression of disbelief or to point out that someone did something incredibly stupid and absurd. It's the natural, visceral, automatic reaction to an obvious blunder you can't believe you just witnessed.
“Qué boludo, he locked his keys inside the car.”
“Qué boludo I am, I overpaid and didn't even notice.”

Tener el santo de espaldas
When nothing goes your way and it feels like the universe has a personal grudge against you. In Mexico and Spain, the image is religious: your patron saint has literally turned their back on you, leaving you to fend for yourself against an endless streak of bad luck.
