All Mom tested, Mom•Logic approved.

1. "How ‘bout that World War I?"
The elderly love talking about the past, even if sometimes they can’t remember it.

2. "I bet you're really good at lawn bowling."
People love to talk about their hobbies, especially when the hobby is also pretty much their job.

3. "How's your hip?"
Hip health is hot with the older set.

4. "Can you believe the price of Efferdent?"
Or any other stereotypical senior citizen’s product.

5. "Love your pantsuit! Is that polyester?"
Also a winner, “Is your hair a new tint of blue?”
