Jimmy Neutron "sodium chloride" ass reply, "everything is edible at least once" is a common joke that works precisely because words' definitions are not rigid
Edit: I think it's best to leave this comment up as I originally wrote it, but I'm also going to go on the record to say that I could've and should've phrased this a lot more cordially.
Yeah, it's a very common joke which I argue does not work because despite the fact that there is leeway in how words are defined (that's kind of what my entire comment is about) there is no valid definition of edible which includes mushrooms that definitely kill you if you eat them.

A bollard isn't edible, even once.
