Planning on doing the same
Yeah sorry, wasn’t sure how that would play to a wider audience. A running joke for American movie-philes is that any actor, director, movie, etc. are never more than six degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon.
Really just a study in probabilities, but a fun party trick…

Ah. Brilliant. I’m certain that my Simpsons loving former colleagues would have known about this too, as well as knowing there are actors with better Bacon numbers than Bacon. 
While I LOVE movies I have a memory like a steel sieve. More than once I’ve started to watch a flic only to realize halfway in that I’d seen it.
