Engrish & Funny Typos

This is posted on the door to the stairwell in my building. Every day I come home and somebody (clearly the author of this) has it propped open, with the stairwell window open. I proceed to close the window, then the door, as it is WINTER and it’s a bit chilly at night and I don’t feel like blasting the heat.

Here’s a rough translation: 1) Do you like the cigarette smoke that fills this corridor? 2) If not, then please leave this door open. Thank you.

Here’s what would have been more constructive: Please go outside to smoke, the smell wafts into our apartments. Thank you.
