Real practical pickle jar advice that always works: take a decent sized knife and tap the corners of the lid with the blunt end enough to dent it just a bit, one on each side of the circle or maybe 2 more should do it. It’ll come right off after.
further additional advice: pretty sure 90% of opening a tough jar is persistence. if you’re really crankin on that thang as hard as you can, there’s a good chance you’re making progress, even if it’s not perceptible. at the very least you’re stressing the metal or plastic and making it more malleable. there’s a reason letting someone else have a go at it works so often and it’s not just cuz they’re stronger.

Additional real advice: twist the jar, not the lid.
Additional joke advice: flip it upside down and use the can opener on the bottom.
