Shanky or Skanky???

Would anyone have another definition for "a shanky-looking guy" than the one available at urbandictionary.com ?
Thanks

Hey Michel, do you mean shanky or skanky??? Skanky I could understand but shanky might imply a guy with more assets than I could handle - he he!!!!

Skanky is being used about the traps around the Western suburbs here more and more as I understand (and believe me I'm an amateur and old person - 46 that is, therefore I'm basing this on teenage hearsay). Used to mean sleazy (if you look it up in the dictionary), but has gained more street cred I think lately and is actually now a compliment. Sort of like 'sick'. As an old person I have to say that 'sick' used to mean 'sick', but now it means fantastic or something even better.

Challenging stuff for us old people!!!

But given I'm struggling to keep up, that doesn't mean that shanky isn't a whole new word with a whole new definition and that I'm just not keeping up!!!

Skanky is the good one. Sorry for the misspelling...
It couln't be anything good here, as in the context, it's a probation officer looking at a convict photo and saying:
"Here's another one I had. Real skanky-looking guy, who want's him? He had a dirty urine* twice in a row, so I violated him"
*drug testing
When I listed all the words from this novel that I needed to translate or define, I got carried away, and read shanky instead of skanky, still remembering of shank, a homemade knife in prison slang...
Thanks Goddess! I'm just surprised that you wrote there could be guys with more assets that you could handle. What happened to you???
