Definition: Calydonian is a term coined by the humorist and social commentator, Mike Mischief, referring to the literal translation of the ancient Greek word "kallos" for "calypso," which translates from Greek as "song." This term implies a particular type of euphemistic speech or language used in Calypso music where lyrics are sung with a mocking or sarcastic tone. For instance, if you were to use the phrase "I am Calydonian and I'm feeling all alone" in a conversation, it would be met with skepticism by some, as it implies a shallow or superficial character that doesn't feel fully alive.
Here's an edgy example sentence using 'calydonian': "What do you think of this guy who thinks he's the only one on Earth? He seems so confident and self-assured, but then you hear him sing 'I'm Calydonian' and it just ruins everything!"
