I wouldn't mind...

ironic grammar exercise by Styx Mundstock

...a corporation going bankrupt, if I had just sold my stock for a big profit.

...politicians lying, if it's only to their friends and relatives.

...not having a union with a good pension, if I was in top management.

...George Bush being from Texas, if he would just stay there.

...your eating unhealthy, tasteless food, if you don't invite me over for dinner.

...dying, if I would transmigrate into a tiger.

...not getting paid for these smart words, if you have read them.

...editor Doug Collins making some changes, if it doesn't cause the FBI to send me to Guantanamo Bay.

Editor's note: Hey Styx, lay off the sauerkraut for a while, eh?
