Planet X to collide with Earth on September 23.

I mean...we would be able to see a planet that large by now if collision was this imminent. And let's not get into the gravitational wonkiness that would be happening if a planet this large was close to us...

"Theory" proven wrong in 1 second.

I'm no scientist, but can't planets bend light?

People believe the dumbest fucking things. What kind of ridiculous orbit would this have to be on for it to be concealed all this time or for Earth to feel any adverse effects...c'mon...

Anything classified as a planet has so small gravitational lensing it might as well be zero. (OK, not quite that small but it isn't really worth thinking about.)
That said, if there was a close-by (within Neptune's orbit, or even a bit beyond) object with mass of Earth or so, its gravitational perturbations would've been detected long ago.

Oh look at that. Another world is gonna end bullshit story. Why do people still continue to give stupid assed morons who spout bullshit like that attention? Why? All they're doing is enabling these idiots.

A company being excited for their new game is a huge slap in the face to all the fans that liked their old games.
So, the eclipse is on my girlfriends birthday, and the collision is on mine.

Cool.

Nothing eerie about that...

I'm not really worried. I'll bet cash money we get saved a Japanese soldier, a flower girl, a barmaid, a loud black guy, a teenage ninja wannabe, and their red dog right before it hits.
 
This is basically the plot to the TV show Salvation on right now, except its an asteroid in Salvation and there are a lot more love triangles in the show than in this guys life.
