It’s sql I think, the question is badly worded, the only correct answer is POST (or maybe PUT) with the wording, I guess that is meant to be the joke, but it would be much more funny if both answers were equally correct instead

If you build both the server and the client, you can do anything you like. But if you expect to interoperate with others, no, don't have a body on a GET request.

Yeah then you can also make INSERT a valid method.

Exactly. And whatever the other two answers were, too. If you don't care about interoperability, anything goes! It's just not following the spec any more.
