ostensibly 

Outwardly, Supposedly. The most likely assumption

The ostensibly heterosexual man keeps threatening to shove things up his co-workers asses. The No Child Left Behind Act is ostensibly for improving education.

ostensible layer 

an unfortunate and rather concrete layer of reality created as a coincidental byproduct of ambiguity in communication through an inadequately defined, poorly understood, and intentionally abused sub/urban vernacular.

on the ostensible layer, me & that ho are not together; however we still live together, have sex, and are engaged to be married next june.

What you presumably can expect when you travel to da magical land "over da rainbow".

Now dat Dorothy Gale has gotten rid of da two wicked witches, you could ozstensibly gallivant from one corner of da territory to da other without fear of running afoul of less-than-sociable sorcerers. Depending on what areas you venture into, though, you still may need to watch out for da Jackdaws, Kalidahs, and Hammerheads, among other antagonists; you'll also wanna steer clear of da Fighting Trees. To be on da safe side, be sure to stop by da Emerald Palace for a printed travel-guide --- many of said royal castle's regular residents have had personal experience with many of these aforementioned undesirables, and so they have compiled said comprehensive booklet to let visitors know da "where and what" regarding said hazardous entities.

Ostensilunchable 

When a person brings in a lunch box that would outwardly appear to contain healthy, wholesome foods, but in turn is just a giant bag of 7-11 store finds. This is usually done by a person who claims to be eating what would otherwise be considered healthy foods, but in fact are eating a meal every hour that is comprised of sodium laden, carbohydrate engorged, fat drenched garbage they purchased at a convenience store. During the consumption of these horribly planned meals, the person normally sounds like a pug eating a can of Alpo. You may even think that they are choking, but that is not the case. They are merely trying to obtain oxygen around the hot pocket between their lips. This is all done with a disturbing look of euphoria on the consumer's face.

This lady brought his lunch bag in today. It had the name of a local health food store on it and I was impressed until I realized the bag was an ostensilunchable. It was filled with pop tarts, energy drinks, candy bars, and other garbage.

How one would expect a painting-job using perforated overlays to turn out.

Creating fancy wall-designs with patterned paint-rollers would ostencilbly be quicker and easier than using punched oil-boards.
