A fair while ago someone said something like `嘘だぴょーん！` in a comment.

But what kind of a connotation and usage does `～だぴょん` have? Can it be used in
a kind of humorous sort of way?

**Edit:** Realized it was actually `嘘だぴょーん！`.

Usage of "～だぴょん"
The question was revised since my initial comment, which I will add as an
answer.

だぴょん (or だぴょーん) is a final suffix equivalent to だよん or だよ. It adds a sense of
cuteness owning to the fact that ぴょん (or ぴょんぴょん) is the way in which something
(such as a bunny) hops or bounces.

(@Dono's correction/answer allowed me to find out a lot more, so I thought I
might try to add a bit about the expression `嘘ぴょん`.)

According to Zokugo-dict, [`嘘ぴょん`](http://zokugo-dict.com/03u/usopyon.htm) is
an expression which first appeared around 1986, and it's used when speaking
one's mind after someone tells a fib. It apparently isn't used for really
serious lies, only for exaggerations/dramatizations etc which could end up as
jokes.

Apparently `嘘ピョーン` was at number 1 at Goo's 2009
[`今でもつい使ってしまう死語ランキング`](http://ranking.goo.ne.jp/ranking/999/dead_language/)
"ranking of dead language which is unintentionally used even now."
