Aside from the complete lack of consensus about whether, if you're talking to somebody earlier in the week, "Next Thursday" means this coming Thursday or Thursday next week.
Some people always mean one or the other. OK, although still confusion because there are people who will understand the opposite.
Some people will mean "This coming Thursday" if they say it on Monday or Tuesday but "Thursday next week" if it's Wednesday because otherwise they'd say "Tomorrow", obviously. Those people are sociopaths.
Some people use "Next Thursday" for one meaning, "Thursday next" for the other and they should be sterilised.
