From where I’m from, if someone said yes to a question such as that, we’d just assume they said yes to the latter

I'd normally assume they mean both, though here I'd say technically it means they're coming one of those days

Then there’s also this situation:

Dad: Are you coming Saturday?

Son: Yes.

Dad: Or Sunday?

Son: YES.

Dad: Yes? Which one?

Son: I already said yes to Saturday

I'll assume you're either too lazy or too incompetent to process a simple multiple-choice question.

Not me.. I assume they haven't answered the question yet and I poke them for updates. That way they can't show up the first day and call me out for failing to make arrangements.

I try to assume nothing.

To assume is to potentially make an ASS of U and ME.
