Who is the funniest member of Giant Bomb / Whiskey Media?

Vinny and Jeff. If i had to pick i guess i would go with Vinny.
EDIT: I love how Patrick isn't on the list.
The ballot is flawed because Rorie is also missing. A lot of people are technically missing if we're using all of the former Whiskey Media people.
I really enjoy Vinny's crude humor and upbeat attitude, but I have to give Jeff the edge because his impersonations/caricatures are just so good.

Vinny, with Jeff a close second. It seems though that when together, some of Jeff's comedy comes from Vinny's setups. For example in the Rollercoaster Rampage QL, Vinny starts up the talk about BigJeffrey, which leads to Jeff's caricature of BigJeffrey.
This was basically my reasoning, but I voted Jeff.
Jeff hits my funny bone more consistently, but when Vinny is "on it"... that motherfucker decimates everyone on this list. So I chose Vinny with Jeff very close in second place.
They also play off each other the best compared to any other pairing (Jeff and Ryan are the second best duo, if anyone's curious).
These results are no surprise. Vinny is our Comedy God.
Big Jeffrey is still a respectable Comedy Demigod.
While I tend to lean towards Jeff individually because he seems the most like a lovable psychopath and he's the only one I've listened to doing his own thing (holy crap, when he tricked the other GB crew members into an episode of the Nintendownload express, I've never laughed so damn hard), I have to say they are all at their best when bouncing off each other. Like how tiger robots are cool, but Voltron is 100 times cooler. But I'm bettin on Jeff as a solo act. When put together and riffing, it becomes a much harder call to make. . . I don't think I actually can.
They all have their own personal styles, and that is what makes them such a perfect match, but if I had to choose the most consistently funny, I would have to give it to Jeff.
They are all funny in their own right though.
EDIT: Upon further examination of this poll, I love how Patrick isn't even an option.

It's kind of annoying, but everytime someone makes a poll everyone always votes Vinny.
Best Dad? Vinny. Best taste in games? Vinny. Person least like Vinny? Vinny.
It just comes with being awesome :P It's sort of unfair though, as with his role on the site he really never has to be the bad guy. Like if he plays a game he doesn't enjoy he doesn't have to play through it and tell everyone how much it sucks. And when it comes to video content he doesn't have to contribute unless he has something to add that will improve it.
I prefer to rate their hilarity in pairs. Jeff and Vinny are the best comedy duo in quick looks. Take one of them out and the tone of conversations don't really lend themselves to prime cut moments like "Big Jeffery".

Me too, man.
Jeff's not always funny, but when he is, it's truly great. But Vinny's consistently funny all the time. So I voted for him.
