I should of been disorientated
Grammatical HATES!

Use of the non-word disorientated. It's fucking DISORIENTED. Disorientated is NOT a word. Orientation IS a word, disorientation IS a word, disorientated is NOT a fucking word!!

Since when is OF interchangeable with HAVE? As in, I should of, I could of. I know where it comes from, it's the bastardisation of the abbreviation of have to 've, as in should've, could've, but every fucking where I see should of, could of. Fuck me!

You're Wrong
www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/disorientated

And I've used it, in it's correct sense, many times.

i should have known this one would be here...
every time i hear or read the words "could/should/would of" i want the illiterate nutcase who uttered or wrote the words to be bludgeoned to death with a grammar book.
