The Ovulator - Can make her eggs ovulate on command

Dr. Curdle - Can instantly tell you how many days are left before the milk spoils

Crazy Lover - is wildly attractive to people with significant emotional problems

Energy Vampire - Listening to them complain and kvetch about their life induces a state of mental paralysis and a feeling that your life energy is being absorbed by bottomless black hole of emotional neediness.

the Aqua Teen Hunger Force seems relatively useless…

Frylock (the only one with real superpowers, so he may not qualify) the ability to shoot force-beams from his eyes, the ability to use his fries as a radar antenna

Meatwad; shapeshifting into useless forms (igloo, hot dog, bridge, Wayne Gretsky)

Master Shake; the ability to be a self-centered jerk

disclaimer, i do like ATHF, so this post is not meant to be mean, just realistic…
