my first choice has always been an aspirin, but most of my coworkers tell me I'm wrong and I should use ibuprofen first.

What's your take?

Motrin(Ibuprofen) because it works better for me, assuming the migraine doesn't cause me to puke it up right after.

Aspirin has never been of value to me and I would only take it if I had a heart attack.

I pretty much always go ibuprofen, but aspirin is fine.

I'm pretty sure acetaminophen is snake oil though (this is a joke but I can't recall ever having it resolve a headache for me like ibuprofen does).

Used to be ibuprofen but I gained an allergy to it so now it's acetaminophen (Tylenol)

I default to ibuprofen. Feels a little more effective to me than acetaminaphen. I've never taken aspirin for pain.
