POLL: What does "NEXT WEEKEND" Mean?
I am in the middle of a debate, so I am hoping CP can solve it:
Scenario: Today is Wednesday. Someone asks you " Hey, do you want to go to the game next weekend?"
In this scenario, does " next weekend" refer to:
- The weekend coming up in ~3 days
- The weekend after the one coming up (~10 days)

B. If you think about it, if the guy said "lets do something next Friday", you wouldn't be thinking the Friday coming up right? You'd be thinking the Friday next week.
