In first-person shooter video games, a potato is a person, normally a "noob", who gets on your team and has absolutely no skill at playing the game. Therefore, they get taken down very quickly when the match starts. A potato is only useful for those brief moments when they are being relentlessly gunned down by the enemy by providing a distraction so that the more skilled players on the team can counterattack or sneak up behind the enemy. A potato is useless in any other scenario that requires not dying and they will likely drag the rest of a player's team down with them when they beg for a revive. This potato revive scenario is also a countertactic used by highly skilled and experienced competitors who will camp out to shoot at anyone who comes near the downed potato. A potato's treachery, while unintentional, knows no bounds.
Player 1: "Hey don't revive BigfootsMilf69, he will only get you killed alongside him!"
Player 2: "Yeah, what a potato!"

Kind of like a couch potato only doesn't sit on the couch. Doesn't sit much at all. Has a very busy brain and loves staring into space. The entertainment on the inside never stops and has a hard time paying attention to the rest of the world.

Applied to a person with ADHD in a lighthearted way.
