    Metal lid, put a few drops of boiling water on the lid. Perhaps put the jar in cold water first.
    Plastic lid, no idea. But they often have grooves on the lid. Get a good grip and keep up the pressure for a long time. Often the lid is turning slightly but people give up too early.
    Or give it to a man.

    I got it open. I stuck it into a pan of boiling water.

    This thread made the attempts to form a government appear uninteresting and irrelevant. :)

    I usually just wiggle a knife between the lid and the jar, that breaks the seal and then it's easy to open. Doesn't damage the lid either.

    Turn it the closey way to break the vacuum, then turn it the openy way and it should open. Other than that, bashing the top with a spoon or gripping with a rubber glove usually work for me.

    Are you a nurse or dominatrix?

    Have you tried taking the lid off and putting it back on again?
