Could of, would of and should of...

NO!

could have
would have
should have

It's past tense...it's stating what you could have done, would have done or should havedone. Could've, should've, would've are actual contractions of those terms...they're in the dictionary and everything!

It's not could'f, would'f or should'f is it?
'Of' makes no fucking sense! Stop using it!

I'm not generally one for the grammar pedantry but this one makes people look thick in a way that other common grammar mistakes don't imo.

Sorry...but I felt the need to express. Boot me about if you want.

May I just add to this list of punishable-by-death grammatical errors: 'Fed up OF'?

It is fed up WITH, in the name of all that is holy, and no newfangled nonsense will convince me otherwise.
