What about bending my good spoon though?  Taking admins advice I think heating up a dish towel in the microwave would work. I´ll try this technique and report back.

 One can only imagine what may follow that.....can´t we live in peace and harmony...or at least in the same world. I for one would hate to see a world with one gender only.

Hey, I thought about buying this gadget..I pound it against the counter and take a towel and still can´t get those jars open at times.
Metal part of the jar (the lid) expands and contracts more with temperature change compared to the glass body. A cold jar will be much harder to open because of the contracted lid. Warm the lid a little and it should open easily. Cheaper than getting a powered tool or keeping a husband as jar opener. Plus some guests may be impressed with your practical intelligence
Yes but always remember to use a towel when you open it, it would be kind of hot and burn your hand a bit after you warm it.
But im not sure about using the heat in that case, i wonder what would the scientist say ?!

Heating up a dish towel ?!
Normally wont work, needs to be more warmer than that to open the jar, but again i guess it depends on the jar after all !
Again...we would need to ask the scientists

Teas if you have to exert so much pressure that you bend your spoon then you will want to proceed to step two:
Hold jar in hand, walk to trash bin, toss jar in trash, go to store and purchase new jar. You aren´t EVER gonna get that sucker open!

This way looks easier - if you don´t have a ´Lord of the House´ around of course! (obviously doesn´t apply in Saudi Arabia  )

I think that would help in getting a good grip, but in the case of the actual contraction and expansion of the metal/glass it would not help. Now if you used this solution in conjunction with heating the top, it seems pretty unbeatable.
