Alright I know it is not a perfect fit, but there are a lot of similarities in the dynamic between the show and characters.
Which one is your favorite?
Joey v. Barney
Chandler v. Marshall
Monica v. Lily
Stretches and probably easy answers:
Rachel v. Robin
Ross v. Ted
Sorry no Phoebs

Forgot to add the main premise to this thread 
Which one is the better character?

Barney > Joey
Chandler > Marshall (close one)
Monica > Lilly
Rachel > Robin (I'd take early season Robin but overall Rachel)
Ted and Ross I say equal
If we're ranking just these characters I go
Barney
Chandler
Marshall
Joey
Monica
Lilly
Rachel
Robin
Ted
Ross
Edited to add Joey

I think I would agree with you, but Joey and Barney are extremely close in my book and I think Ross might be a little less whiny than Ted

Barney runs away with that one and I like Joey a lot
Its a damn shame "Joey" happened but Barney couldnt get a spinoff

Ross
Marshall
Monica
Lily
Rachel
Phoebe
Robin
Ted

Didn't know another man could be any whiner than Ross. Show must suck when he's involved.

I always thought Lily reminded me a lot more of Phoebe than Monica. They're both sort of kooky and nice and innocent and the oddball of the group. Anyway, here are my answers.
Joey v. Barney- Barney hands down
Chandler v. Marshall- Chandler
Monica or Phoebe v. Lily- Lily over Monica, Phoebe over Lily
Rachel v. Robin- Robin
Ross v. Ted- Ross
Joey v. Barney- Barney hands down
Chandler v. Marshall- Chandler
Monica or Phoebe v. Lily- Lily over Monica, Phoebe over Lily
Rachel v. Robin- Robin
Ross v. Ted- Ross

Barney beats Joey (close because I love sandwiches)
Marshall beats Chandler (slapsgiving gets the edge)
Rachel beats Robin (hotness)
Ross = Ted (coin toss both annoying)
Monica beats Lily beats Phoebe (hotness)

Friends is infinitely more funny than HIMYM on the whole.
Ross is a better character than any character of both shows.

Yeah I'd agree, but I thought the couple dynamic was more important. Especially since I see a lot of people think Lily brings Marshall down and I think Chandler is a little more subdued after he and Monica gets married

Agreed. I hate HIMYM. I used to watch it, but i got sick of Ted's whiny self. That and all of the jokes were repetitive and it just became not funny to me anymore.
Posted on 3/18/13 at 9:29 am to BuckeyesAndBulldogs
Barney
Chandler
Monica easily
Chandler

All the story lines were money. None were all that loathesome. And the jokes worked and kept showing up over time. The show just worked.
