SFist throws down with the world's nerdiest fight club this week. Or are these reenacters actually the world's nerdiest fight club? Have them fight for it! And Google hates America.

Chicagoist gets all bookish on the Printers Row Fair (once, twice, three times). That's a lot of books. Mark Cuban wants to buy the Cubbies and no one can agree on this band called Be Your Own Pet.

Seattlest is drowning in festivals both film (Seattle International) and music (Sasquatch). <
