I would of.

Seriously. Those words put in that order don't even mean something other than the intended message.

How about:
I would have

It can even be contracted into "I would've". Don't spread bad grammar to your peers, wear protection!

"I am suppose to"

THAT drives me nuts. I don't know why it does, but it does.

It should be: "I am supposed to" and so on.

That is all. Carry on

"Can I aks you a question?" irks me somewhat, but the one that really grinds a nerve is "irregardless" instead of "regardless"

This was a running joke at my old place of employment. Any time someone said regardless this one guy would correct them and make them say irregardless, as a joke of course. We even found irregardless used in a written policy by our boss once, it was printed out, highlighted, and posted in my cubicle lol.
