I am actually neither. The name came from a story posted by another DUer, many years ago. When I first joined DU, in 2004, I was Husb2Sparkly. That soon got abbreviated to H2S. H2S is also the chemical symbol for hydrogen sulphide, the stinky stuff in eggs, farts, sewage, etc. This poster's husband, a chemical engineer, would see her typing a reply to "H2S" and would always laugh.
Sparkly and I thought it was pretty funny, too.
I real life, I tend be kind of silly and laugh a lot. I'm a happy guy. Sparkly likes to say I am a clown.
That obviously sort of grew into Stinky The Clown. In the only name change amnesty on DU, I made the change.
And here I am.
Stinky The Clown. (And now a host of this forum.)
Edited to add this picture of our three and the kid next door. Our three are the German Shepherd, the Border Collie, and the Shih-Tzu. The 120 lb Lab is the kid next door who likes to go for a walk with ours.

Love to the furkids!

(67,838 posts)They give them definition from her black face and make the eyes more "wise" and "knowing".
Of course, like all BCs, she *is* wise and knowing.

(3,310 posts)she's probably a bit of a smartass. Perfect for me because I resemble that remark

(8,571 posts)So that's how you came up with your name. I always wondered about that. Love the dogs! The Shih-Tzu is darling! I love the hair on top of the head, almost looks like Alfalfa lol That lab is huge, I don't think I've ever seen one that big.
Stinky The Clown
(67,838 posts)Our GSD is a little taller, but the lab is broad and stout. When he comes running toward you he's scary. Its like a freight train bearing down on you.
