"Looks" is right. If this is /'Saisti/, with a "long" first letter "i",
it sounds nothing like "shizitty" and is more plausibly deriveable from
"Scheisse". OTOH, if it is /SI'sIt'i/, then "shisety" is (IMHO, and to
stay in character) a piss-poor way to spell it; I would use something
more like "shisitty". And if it is /SI'zIt'i/ then the spelling you've
already used is the best one.
