We're on a mission from Glod.

We're on a mission from Glod.

Summary

This quote is a humorous play on the famous line "We're on a mission from God" from the film "The Blues Brothers." By replacing "God" with "Glod," the speaker creates a comedic twist and mocks the notion of a divine mission. It suggests that the purpose or goal of the speaker and their companions is not divinely ordained or significant, but rather whimsical or trivial. The quote highlights the absurdity of attributing deep significance to certain endeavors, emphasizing a lighthearted and tongue-in-cheek approach to life's missions or quests.
