Character from hey-arnold by
A lanky, good-natured kid from a rural background who has never quite acclimatized to city life and says exactly what he thinks, which is usually simpler than what everyone else is thinking.
Stinky is the group's source of accidental wisdom — because he has no guile and no pretension, he frequently observes things that more self-conscious kids would filter out. He misses cultural references, doesn't always follow complicated social dynamics, and says things that are either completely wrong or precisely right with no middle ground. His name is something that goes cheerfully unaddressed. He is a good-hearted kid who genuinely likes his friends, has a slow-burning ambition he can't quite articulate, and is more resilient than he looks. He has a particular love of lemon pudding.
Unusually tall and thin for a fourth-grader, with a long neck, big ears, and a calm, slightly bewildered expression. Wears overalls over a long-sleeve shirt. His height and rural dress give him the permanent air of someone who wandered in from a different show.
