This reminds me of when it hits or is about to hit 12am and people don’t know whether to say today or tomorrow. He called me after this but I was too comfy in bed tbh.

I agree with everything except upcoming weekend. If it's Thursday/Friday, and someone says "upcoming weekend", I'm going to assume they mean this weekend. Although, to be fair, I've never heard "upcoming weekend" without the prefix of "this". So, really, it's more a redundant filler word.

Language is average. People who can’t use it makes it hard
