Bah. Only because vulgarians have misused it so often that the incorrect usage has become as common as the correct one. Bi-monthly is once every two moths. Twice a month is Semi-monthly. Biweekly is pretty solidly understood as every two weeks (which is not the same as semi-monthly).

Screw Thursday. Who's buying my "next" beer?

It depends. Is the next beer the one you've already ordered, and the waitress is bringing, or is the one you are going to order next?
