Possible fungis. The doctor can put you on something that works through the bloodstream. There are several things available but from my experience topicals dont work. So if they are discolored you should go to the doctor. If its just a stink then they are just dank.

Sounds like a fungal infection. Tea tree oil is just as effective as antifungals for this and that's what I'd recommend.

Because you are Human .
If they were not being liars only demigods and robots could say that there toenails smell like anything but cheese .
By the way thats where cheese comes from so why not eat a little next time prehaps with a tomatoe, because as with weed nothing can compare to homegrown .

wonderful insights here, 
i should mention they are ingrown a little bit and have been as long as i can remember. i trim them every now and then, but they always grow back. is there anyway to get the fuckers to grow normally?

Make sure you trim them so that the cut is above the fleshy part of your toe and almost horizontal. But you don't want a sharp, pointy edge at each end. So basically an upside-down "U".
Run a nail file under the nail. If u get lots of debris then theres your "cheese" smell most likely. A fungal infection. [see above]
