    Either you typed it wrong or there is no such word in Russian language.
    Send me a PM if you need me.

    Maybe шизнить (from шиза = шизофрения, шизоидный тип личности)?

    I always thought it was a contraction of "that is the sh1t, isn't it?" (meaning "good") as used by rappers and other assorted illiterate morons.
