Can figure out how to lower those blinds down (and I've been here 6 months).

There are three like that, all aligned, and in the same position, so if this one is stuck, the other two are (unlikely).
Got something resembling that clusterfuck?
Help? Dude Weep

Have you tried the above?

Also, since I guess the rope forms a loop, have you tried pulling the loop in both directions for both up and down? Im not sure sure if I conveyed what I mean here Laughing
Retard version: Take the sides of the rope in one hand each and try pulling down with only the left or right hand.

There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.

The trick with these "luxaflex" is pulling the strings sharply to the left and then slowly release the strings.
In regard of orientation: When you are facing the luxaflex. GL

All three were fucked from the start. I never lowering them down since I like the light from those southern-facing windows. It's just that I don't want my wanking/fucking sessions to be taped, then sold.
When I saw these "XXX- AMATEUR - Magic White Boy With Wonder Cock" videos spread all over xvideos.com, my narcissistic personality disorder kicked in, and automatically I thought I was being taped by my neighbours.

As Reagan would say: "BRING THOSE BERLIN-MADE BLINDS DOWN, MR. HUBU!"

That, or the sun. But anyway, thanks :>

Well that is a nasty trait, but you can't have them blinds fool you.
And then, sometimes you need to get exposed.

Those kind of blinds are the worst man.

Everytime i try to use them somewhere, it takes a while to figure out this extremely complex mechanism. Embarassed

I just didn't want to fuck the whole thing up. Seemed doable, but who knows? Didn't want my landlord to skim x bucks out of my deposit if I screwed up.

I went spider just to be stable near the walls. Then I came down, came again, and there I was; sticky.
