Do you mean this Saturday or one afterthe one before that?
Why is the "after" wrong?

Why is the "after" wrong?
Here's the original conversation.
I was there last Saturday.
Do you mean this Saturday or one after that?
In the US, "last Saturday" is the most recent Saturday so the one after it hasn't happened yet. I guess somebody could've asked on a Sunday or a Monday, but then they would've asked something like, do you mean yesterday (or two days ago)?
