Never. In my entire life I have never used those two words together. What does post-modern mean? This is the first time I've used them together! :)
Which is correct grammar - do you put his or him before a verb?

Where did "should of" come from? How can anybody confuse "have" and "of"? They don't even have any letters in common.

Several years ago there was a "modern" movement, since that time has passed, things could now be called "post-modern". I don't know all the specifics, but I think it sounds pretentious to call someone old fashioned as modern, and someone contemporary as post-modern.
