Not as surreal as the previous lunch observation, but it was still amusing nonetheless. I love the idea that people are now re-learning elementary-level facts thanks to Jeff Foxworthy.
I wasn’t able to get a good drawing of this group, because I think they figured out I was observing them (even though I could easily hear them from where I was sitting across the dining area) and they took off before I could finish drawing them.

I had no idea there was an actual name for it and that it was considered a cartoonist’s convention, but apparently there is – it’s the Silent Penultimate Panel.
Arnold Wagner wrote about it recently on his blog, and that was where my eyes were first opened to it.
I’ve used those now and again (I try not to over-use them, but they’re fun). Frequent cartoon-lunch cohort Matthew Hansen refers to them as “Third Panel Guys Staring at Each Other cartoons,” which has a nice ring to it, but I’m kind of excited to now refer to them as SPPs.
EDIT: And another.
