An invention with somewhat unclear origins, curtains are an accessory to a hole in the wall called a window. This enables the user to view the outside world without risking the many unpleasant realities which going out would entail. The curtains' function in life is to block this hole, thereby obscuring the outside world. This would prove useful when the user remembered why he made a house of brick to block everything out in the first place.
