Input question

In a forest, a Deer runs to escape from a lion or tiger, so he runs and shows the lion that it will go in right and turn left. So the lion puts all his energy into going in the right and the deer saves his life because the lion cannot control himself and goes ahead. So if I make a post of being at a gym where the haters kicked me out but I post a video like saying I was there and I put back in business boys was that good? Lead them wrong
