Thanks for joining the rest of us. Please, come in. Barack brought some calorie free cheese dip in the back, and Peyton brought the veggie tray. Everyone here has contributed something to the party. The McConnells brought some Swedish meatballs, even and John Legend is going to sing here in a little bit. Yes. Just make yourselves at home.

As you know, we get together like this every month to celebrate our perfection. There aren’t that many of us around, and we have to make sure we recognize those who truly belong in our club.

We also spend this time every meeting casting aspersions on those who didn’t quite make it. As you can see from the program we’ve handed you, the list is pretty long of those who we will roast tonight. You see, we feel especially entitled to explain who isn’t perfect because, well, frankly, we are perfect. In every way.

Our glass houses don’t even have so much as a Windex smudge on them. So coming up first is where we start throwing our rocks. Let’s look at the world of sports and already it’s been a busy year. You know who isn’t invited to our party? The referees who worked the New Orleans Saints NFC Championship game. You know, those guys who didn’t call pass interference? Sorry, fellas, your party invite has been lost in the mail.

Dee Ford also isn’t on the invite list because of… you know… We lined your invitation up in the neutral zone.

Celebrating our perfection is a right that we hold very seriously so that’s why we’ve decided to uninvite Elon Musk because he’s starting to creep us out. Our other decision was to uninvite Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez – the young Congresswoman – from our parties because she made that music video when she was in college. The nerve.

In fact, we’ve decided to launch a new investigation into the old yearbooks of just about everyone who is currently a member of the perfection club. It’s turned up some really interesting stuff so far. You may still get to be a Governor or a Supreme Court Justice – but you can’t be in our Perfection Club.

We get it. Perfection isn’t easy. And that’s why there aren’t that many of us left at the party. We have limited our membership to the Republican party, YouTube commenters, and everyone with a Twitter account. We are the only ones allowed to comment on those who aren’t as perfect as us.

Just remember to make the rest of our meetings because we still have some membership decisions to make. The New England Patriot fan base has been asking for entry for a while, and it’s getting harder to tell them no. I mean… just look at them and all their success. Derek Jeter certainly has been a strong proponent for their entry.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, Kevin Kietzman and Joe Buck are fighting over the crab dip. This happens every month. Enjoy the perfect party.

Congratulations to the Class of 2025. You did it. You're the first true post-COVID graduates—meaning you've survived remote learning, mask mandates, Zoom fatigue, and enough hand sanitizer to pickle a horse. Also, you've lived through not one, but two Trump...
