Spent a good amount of time golfing this. I'm sure there's a few optimizations I've missed, but I don't understand the word "big" anymore.

Hello, World!
PHP by default prints all source to output until it encounters <? or <?php.

Absolutely the shortest possible, no doubt about it. Try it online!. It won't work in the online one, copy it from there and paste it in the developer console if you are on chrome (as it uses the alert function). Please excuse my absolutely awful ascii art.
I also now see that this output isn't accepted (needs the comma and exclamation mark)... lol now it's time to figure out how I did this months ago so I can fix it ...

wagwan my slime
man say"Hello, World!"
chat wit u later fam
My first RoadLang answer! And probably the first one on this site!
Removing any of the words says "Aight the lad's lost the plot", so I think this is the most minimal answer I can get here.
Thanks to Quintec for patching string parsing so that this works.
