Behind the Scenes


IM IN UR MANGER KILLING UR SAVIOR
The very first and most famous For Tax Reasons short. Released as a holiday short in November of 2007, it features three nerds turning a nativity scene into a LARP battle. This short introduced the world to Ronin Dojo Community College DX crew, and many confused parents to the concept of Live Action Role Playing.

It was followed up with a pair of video responses from the characters sounding off on the innaccuracies of the short.
