What's Your favorite Soft Synth Sound
I seem to like the patterned synths. I've been building practice clips to play my guitar to  ....... good times

I am old school - I love the Arturia recreations of vintage gear. I also use VSM and MTron Pro from G Media a lot. Those are string machines and mellotrons.
Some people call me Maurice SPLAT Pro lifetime, ADK 6 core 3.6Ghz with 32 GB RAM, SSD 1TB system drive, 3 3TB regular drives for samples, recordings and misc. Behringer X Touch, UAD Apollo Quad. 2 UAD2 Quads PCI (i think - inside the box whatever that is), Console 1. More guitars (40??) and synths (hard and soft) than talent. Zendrum!!!

I still love a nice electric piano sound (a la Rhodes).
Aside from that... has anyone digimitized those barking dogs from the old Radio Shack Casio keyboards or whatever they used for that obnoxious barking version of "Jingle Bells"?
Because that would be my second choice.

I believe that particular patch is called "The Al Bundy".

The Softube modular wave folder module creating evolving harmonic textures.
Or a preset - Topographic in the Rick Wakeman bank of GForce Minimonsta.

Or it came from the George Carlin skit about fart types: The fizz, the fazz, the fizz-fazz, the rip-s***, the a** tearer and the one that goes whoooooooosh!

The "whooooshers" are always the smelliest.
I mean aside from the whole "almost touched cloth" to "totally touched cloth" spectrum of gastric events.

One of my favorite soft synths is Element by Waves (now updated to Element 2). Such an authentic analog sound and so easy to get those wide, creamy pads and pristine plucks. I'm also a big fan of Rounds by Native Instruments - once you get your head around it you can make some unique sounds that are next to impossible to do with any other synth. It's also great throwing some MIDI at it and not quite knowing how it's going to interpret it.
Recently though I've fallen in love with Reaktor Blocks. That's the most fun I've had with synths in a long time.
