YSK it's either "should have" or "should've". "Should of" is incorrect
Why YSK?
The first person who typed "should of" probably heard of it in real life that was meant to be "should've", they typed "should of" online and readers thought that it's grammatically correct to say "should of" which is in fact wrong and it became widespread throughout the years on Reddit.
I hope something could start to change.

I could care less.
My in-laws and I have a Signal group where we share fun spellings and pronunciations. We call it "udder mayham." It's fun.
This one is popular.
That's an eggcorn right?
I could care more or less.
This one in particular gets my goat
Awesome! That means you'll make a mental note and avoid making the mistake in the future?
That, or this is clearly a potentially intentional (or unintentional) misuse of the saying "I could'nt care less"
