Make the lid part of the next Skullgirls.

Fun fact: the air pressure inside the glass is lower. That's what holds the lid on so tightly. To equalize the pressure you can a) put a hole into the lid (use a nail), or b) (if you want to save the lid) put that glass in warm water for 5 minutes (thermal expansion). But don't use boiling water. Temperature shock stresses glass and it cracks.

P.S.: I apply brute force though, because that option is available to me.

Personally if I can't open it with brute force I use a knife or a fork and jab it into the gap between the jar and the lid and give it a twist, this creates a tiny gap that lets the pressure equalize and the lid comes off really easy.

Dirty_Harry's 1st advice is usually the best, except for the choice of tool : i would not go for a nail as it's to frail and you'll just hurt yourself. A metallic flat tool like a flat-headed screwdriver would do.
