You need to brush up on your contract law. What you stated is not true. You can enter into a contract under the theory it is a joke and that no reasonable person would rely on it. There is a ton of case law on this issue (yes, I'm a law school grad, pity my waste of money :)). There is no way any judge would rule this was a legitimate contract.
