Thanks poindexter. It was a joke.

A sentence needs to be funny to be a joke. Also, not everything needs a joke as a response.

I think it was fairly clearly a joke, and at least a little bit funny via absurdity, like suggesting nuking it to open it, or wrapping an elastic band around like a tight jar lid.

Not everything you read is serious unless otherwise stated.
