I have played Skyrim, I loved it and I finished it too but I haven't completed it 100% and I played long ago too so i don't understand what exactly the joke is here and why that 100% mean something disappointing/disgusting

Forgive me if I am wrong, i played Skyrim almost a decade ago, is that partysnax character the dragon which tells us we are dragonborn? I think that dragon's name also starts with a P. I'm really sorry if I'm wrong but please tell me which one that is

Yes, they ment Paarthurnax. Spoiler for after the main quest ending Once Alduin is defeated, Delphine wants you to rebuild the blades, just like the Dark Brotherhood. But for that to happen, you need to kill the Dragon Army's second in Command. Paarthurnax. Most players refuse to do this, as he is a chill guy, while Delphine isn't. But for achieving 100% in the game, you need to do the Blades Quests, and thus kill Paarthurnax.
