You betcha! ;-)

And my favourite, of course - which I can't remember what it was called 
now - is when the character runs out of ground and keeps running until 
such time as they realise that there's nothing under them.

It's going to bother me that I can't remember the term now.

I'm pretty sure I never knew the term, but now it's going to bug me too.

LOL

I want to say it's something like "suspension of" something (not 
disbelief).

I also want to say that Tex Avery coined the term in question.

That's fun, but not coining terms.

Yeah, that's a great site.  I'm now wondering if I saw the term in a toon-
based RPG now.  Or maybe it wasn't Tex Avery, but Chuck Jones who coined 
the term I'm thinking of.

Agh!  This is going to drive me NUTS!

Aha!  Found it:  The "plausible impossible" is what I'm thinking of, and 
apparently Walt Disney coined the term.

There's something to be said for the fact that they generally never spoke 
and still managed to be entertaining.  Speech is overrated. :-)

True, but it would have been a lot harder to start this thread using a 
Wile E. Coyote & Roadrunner reference.

Definitely.  Would've needed to be something like:

 --------------------
 |                  |
 |      YIKES!      |
 |                  |
 --------------------
          ||
          ||
          ||
          ||

This completely cracked me up.  My attempts at creating an ascii-art 
Wile E. Coyote in response were unfortunately similarly hilarious.

This isn't quite at all cartoon physics but I'm sure there's got to be a name

LOL, I'd have to admit, that the first reaction I had was that your 
question was "there's gotta be a name for this", to which the answer is 
"incredibly silly".  "Cold" also comes to mind, as does "potentially very 
messy".  But then I reread and saw that that wasn't the question you were 
suggesting. :-)
