English is not my first language, so what exactly is the problem here? Please explain.

  The poster used slang to reference the event and someone else was making fun of the slang by taking it literally, completely trivialising the fact that a huge natural disaster occurred which resulted in death, injury, and hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars in damage.

    I _am_ that poster. English is my second language and I wasn't aware that the word heavy is perceived as slang. I should've used "serious".

      No, you're fine. It was just the reply seemed a little inappropriate.
