Your sentence MIGHT work, its literal tranlation is "this whole thing is not to be taken seriously". But humour is very tricky to tranlate. I would use Gezbelle's attempt instead.

şaka gibi gel 
I hope you won't be offended, but let me tell you this: This is a very good funny type literature example/material for me. I would use it in a funny poem
I guess you thought that it should come from "gibi gelmek" "sounds/seems like", but you should know that when you say gel, it is imperative, and gibi gelmek can't be used in amperative as well. For that reason, the mening goes in its real meaning: gibi gelmek= to come like... (yes, "to come"=gelmek)
Anyway, we say "şaka yaptım" or "espri yaptım" for this case. I think this sentence cannot be translated directly as both you thought. Because "take" doesnt mean almak like something you can hold in your hands. Jokes are not for taking into th hands 
But there is another saying: ciddiye almak (maybe you say same: take something seriously ). But this word is not used negative for jokes. It is something like "you don't care"= ciddiye almıyorsun. or let's say imperative:
bunu ciddiye alma: "ignore it"
I am not sure but maybe someone could find something more suitable instead of what I mentioned: "espri/şaka yaptım" (I made a joke)
Edit: armagedon did it well while I was writing this

I aspire to Caliptrix finding me amusing.
My point to the requestor was: It hard to get a laugh across the language barrier.
Gezbelle you win!
kazandın.
