mission complete

Objective successfully achieved

Mission complete signals that an objective has been accomplished.

The phrase comes from military and video game contexts, where completing a mission triggers this declaration.

It often carries a tone of satisfaction or finality: Mission complete—let's head home.

Sometimes used ironically for mundane accomplishments: Got the groceries. Mission complete.
