I hope you guys have heard of this. For those new to the game heres the idea.

The idea is that everything has six degrees of separation linking them to actor and pork-produce-namesake Kevin Bacon. Everything in the world has just six degrees of separation from the man. The idea behind this game is that the first person names something and the second person works through six things that gradually lead us to Kevin Bacon. It's difficult to explain in my inebriated state so here's an example:

"Communism"

1 - The word "communism" is derived from the French 19th Century word communisme meaning "common".
2 - "Common People" is the third track off Pulp's 1995 album Different Class.
3 - The video for "Common People" featured Sadie Frost
4 - Sadie Frost was married to Jude Law
5 - Frost and Law's divorce involved a lot of "he said, she said" accusations.
6 - "He Said, She Said" is a film starring... KEVIN BACON

As you can see one thing leads to another until it leads to Kevin Bacon. They can be vague as you like as long as there's six degrees and as long as it leads to the man with the name you love to eat with eggs.

I want to see how this works. It's probably too muh effort for you to be bothered with but I'm curious nonetheless.

First person names something, second person does Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon and names a new something, third person takes if from there. Simple? Not really. See if you can do it. Loser has to consume!

Oh since there may be some time between posts you may end up doing a SDoKB already done by someone else. That doesn't matter. If you have a choice Just chose the word you like best and take it away.

The start "thing" is: Pyramid

You can do it! Go on! Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon! Do it! I'm going to bed!

You take the awesome and developing research field of network theory and ruin it by starting a thread with that stupid fucking game.

Well done Ty, way to make a totally awesome set of mathematical theorems into some gay thing about some shitty yank actor nobody gives a rats ass about.

Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

Because:

shitty yank actor nobody gives a rats ass about = Kevin Bacon.

Mmmm Bacon

1 - A pyramid is a building where the outer surfaces are triangular and converge at a point. The base of a pyramid is usually trilateral or quadrilateral (but may be of any polygon shape), meaning that a pyramid usually has four or five faces. A pyramid's design, with the majority of the weight closer to the ground, means that less material higher up on the pyramid will be pushing down from above: this allowed early civilizations to create stable monumental structures.

2 - A stable is a building in which livestock, especially horses, are kept.

3 - The horse (Equus ferus caballus) is a hoofed (ungulate) mammal, a subspecies of one of seven extant species of the family Equidae.

4 - Caballus Island is located at the entrance to Manila Bay in the Philippines. Caballus, along with the larger Corregidor (2 km to the north), divides the harbor entrance into a northern and southern channel.

5 - Pearl Harbor was a shitty movie and so was Hollow Man.

6 - "Hollow Man" is a film starring... KEVIN BACON

Next up is "Rainbow"

Really, it's a real thing with real scientists who give a shit about it? I figured it was some stupid Facebook fad.

Step 6. can be skipped, just conclude Bacon is also gay.

Has applications in almost every branch of science now.

Everybody knew there was a basic shape to most networks. Nobody knew that mathematical theorems and rules applied to those shapes so you could predict them quite easily.

Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

Flecco don't be dumb, Six Degree of Kevin Bacon is an ancient and sacred drinking game, (well drinking game for some, for others it's just a game.) The only reason it's Kevin Bacon as opposed to anyone or anything else is because "Kevin Bacon" rhymes with "Separation". I'll forgive your rant about mathematical theorems and bullcrap, (which has no place in Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon,) and simply put it down to ignorance on you part.

This is a game Flecco. It's been around for ages. And dude, you have to consume like, five times after that.

Here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_Degrees_of_Kevin_Bacon

Anyway, "Rainbow"

1 - "Rainbow Connection" is a song sung by Kermit the Frog
2 - Kermit the Frog although originally voiced by Muppets creator Jim Henson, is now voiced by Steve Whitmire.
3 - Steve Whitmire also took on the Muppet roles of Richard Hunt after his death in 1992
4 - 1992 was the year that Bill Clinton won the US Presidential Elections beating George H W Bush and Ross Perot
5 - Ross Perot received an honorary Green Beret from the JFK Special Warfare Center in North Carolina on April 22nd this year.
6 - "JFK" was the name of an Oliver Stone movie starring... KEVIN BACON!

Next up: "Toast"

I WILL KILL YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND SOW SALT INTO THE EARTH AROUND THEIR GRAVES!

Hasn't been around forever and the game is sparked off part of the research behind the theory of six degrees of separation which lead to the mathematical definitions being found for networks.

Toast is made from bread.
Bread is made from wheat.
Wheat is grown all across the planet especially in Egypt.
The major religion in Egypt is Islam.
In Islam they do not eat pork.
Kevin Bacon's last name is the name of a pork product.
Best I could do.
