I thought SATIRE meant it was written by one of those half man/ half goat people

It's pronounced "sah-teer-ray". It means "deadly serious and dour" in Cantonese.

Well, if you break it down to it's Cantoneezian roots, SAT means to have placed your posterior somewhere (usually where it don't belong) and IRE meaning being really upset about something.

I have absolutely no idea what it all means, but there it is.
