Via Boing Boing, here’s fan fiction imagining the last broadcast of Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me! due to the inevitable zombie apocalypse. The author did a great job with the dialogue — if you’re familiar with the show you’ll actually hear the panelists’ voices as you read. From “Wait Wait Don’t Eat Me“:
CARL: “I am tired of these m-f’ing zombies in my m-f’ing White House!”
PETER: That was a slightly edited version of a quote from which world leader, in response to the zombie threat?
STEVE: Brains?
PETER: No, I’m sorry, it was Vice-President Joe Biden, who went, and we quote the vice-president again, “all Samuel L. Jackson on their asses.” President Obama, meanwhile, defended the West Wing with a functioning lightsaber that the Pentagon had apparently built for him in secret.
PAULA: Jeez, I wish I’d been able to buy a few of those for my kids.
