 # spitwad
 
-`spitwad` is a library for interacting with WAD files, popularized by ID games like DOOM and Quake. The "defining"
-feature is for WADs to be transmitted as data over the network and transformed to/from JSON (still working on that part!)
-
-Originally built as a joke between some friends after we laughed about how it would be easier to use WADs to send data 
-between applications then JSON, then the idea for a WAD library that could transform WADs to/from JSON was born.
+Originally conceived as a joke between some friends after we laughed about how it would be better to use WADs to send data 
+between applications then JSON, because JSON is stupid and wasteful. `spitwad` is a library for interacting with WAD 
+files, popularized by ID games like DOOM and Quake. You can use it in your DOOM clone, or to package your data and
+send it over a network as a WAD. Why? Why not!
