Ponentially

1. The state of having potential without quite knowing whether or not to verify the possibility of their being potential in the first place.

(Don't confuse yourself, just read the definition again.)

2. Used to point out the possibility of though with a degree of hesitation that warrants typographical error.

Even though they enjoyed sharing a drink and a chat, the couple could only ponentially have had made anything more of it than that.

Potentially

The word used as an escape when commonly found in a tricky conversation. An easy answer for a yes or no question without consequences. The better form of Maybe. Often most affective when said while using hand gestures.

Speaker 1: "Did you punch yourself in the face while dancing awkwardly?"
Speaker 2: "um... eh. Potentially..."

Potentially unwanted program

Term coined by McAfee for a type of software program that may be unwanted, despite the possibility that users are consented to download it. PUPs include (most commonly) adware, spyware and dialers. Some files from these programs will download taskbars.

Most common category of PUPs is rogue software, in which a program bribes the user to pay for a "removal" of non-existent malware on his/her computer.

PC Optimizer Pro is a good example of a potentially unwanted program

Potentially

An answer you can give to your "friends" when they ask you to hang out, but you don't want to. So instead of saying no, you lead them on like a no good thirsty hoe who wants your dick but looks like big foot.

Person 1: You wanna ball tomorrow?
Person 2: potentially

Person 1: I'll take that as a no. Fuck you too.
