levels of uncertainty

I was really bored and this funny thing popped into my head. Let's say that a person is answering a yes or no question in real life, not on a survey. Here are what I believe to be the levels of uncertainty.
1st level: "Probably."
2nd level: "Maybe."
3rd level: "I don't know."
4th level: "Probably; maybe."
5th level: "Probably; maybe; i don't know!"
Unless asking a impressionable, teenage adolescent. Then all of these mean the morally wrong answer of the two.
Thank God I'm not impressionable.
