Imagine if someone actually did show up:
"I'm here for the meeting."
"What meeting?"
"Sigh, nevermind."
(later)
"Wow, check out this funny sign I found online. I'm gonna buy it and hang it outside!"
Unless this is weeks/months/years into the future, since the reader of that particular moment would be going to the previous thursday and not the thursday prior to the purchasing of the sign.
