"would of" is not grammatically correct.  It is "would've" or "would have"
"could of" is not grammatically correct.  It is "could've" or "could have"
"should of" is not grammatically correct.  It is "should've" or "should have"

EDIT:  I don't care about how people say it, what bothers me is when it's typed like that.

This bothers me when I see it written, spoken obviously you make exceptions for speed. I read somewhere that it was actually accepted as correct to say "should of" etc now, which strikes me as catering to the lowest common denominator.
