Attempting to alleviate a situation by being of help, but instead making no impact or making the situation worse.
A: Hey, I remember you talked about that problem with your boyfriend, so I went ahead and asked him about it. He was kinda stand-offish, but I managed to get your point across.
B: You did WHAT? OK, look, I appreciate how much energy you put into that, but you're really potato-helping right now. This is going to make talking to him harder.
A: Oh, I didn't realize. I'm sorry.

Get the potato-helping mug.A poorly made MUGEN fighter typically characterized by its low damage output, poor AI, and inability to use its moves (or if they use them, they tend to use the wrong ones). In the rare event it does use a super move, it is either just as weak as their regular attacks or does absurdly high damage without any explanation. May also be poorly animated, use badly ripped sprites, and/or have ugly colors.
Viewer: These potatoes are boring. They're just weakly punching each other and jumping around like idiots.

Get the potato mug.An expression that describes someone imposing, of great prowess and importance.
However, the expression implicitly means that the individual is someone arrogant, that thinks very highly of themselves, but who is completely unaware of their substandardness and foolish looks in the eyes of others.
