It says "your answer couldn't be...".
I tried posting a question on meta and not an answer. A bug perhaps?

You are right that the message is wrong. It should say "question" instead of "answer". You should put this bug report up on Meta.SE.
As for the warning itself, meta questions must have one of the tags discussion, bug, feature-request, support, so it's by design.
