Is someone holding these poor souls hostage and forcing them to be together?

If these aren't affordable or accessible near you, a good substitute is nonslip shelf liner (example)

Just cut off a square big enough to comfortably drape over the lid plus the sides and it will make it much easier to open them. It requires slightly more physical ability than the jar opening tools since you need to be able to grip rather than just squeeze, but if you don't have significant hand mobility issues it should work fine.

The top one which is what I have is 8.99 (at the time of writing) from walmart but I've also seen similar ones on Amazon, they're not expensive or hard to get. That is a good tip though if you don't have one.
