    I agree with that approach. Put some creativity into it, at least for the time being. Memes are usually not constructed out of thin air, they are born out of randomness. So, be creative, and see what happens to your poll items... one of them might get carried away and turn into your CowboyNeal replacement all by itself, without any force!

    Exactly - no point in trying to hard to create a meme; the meme will naturally emerge, when something just sticks. That being said, I voted 'CowboyNeal' here as it has a nice, warm nostalgic glow, rather than the negativity of the Dice.com option or the blandness of the others.
