Anger can be acceptable if you consider that statement isn't just about you. If someone rejects me because I'm not their type, that's ok, but if you go around saying other singles are bad too, rather than admitting your standards are just high (which is fine), that's rude, especially if you're not one of the "good ones".
My sister uses that phrase and it does mildly anger me, because from living with her I know she's immature (among other problems) and, to a lot of men, and especially the "good ones", I'd assume she is seen as a bad partner herself.

That being said, I do agree that the comic here is kind of forced, I only heard this being said while gossiping, and never as a form of rejection of a specific person.

So what you're saying is, we no longer live in a fair system and it used to be fair(ish), better. That suggests it'd have been easier to live in the 80's.

What is your point?

I get your intial point was that life is more convenient now, but you have done nothing to substantiate the claim that we wouldn't manage in the 80's. Only thing that comes to mind is shipping things from abroad via Internet, but that's only really for side hobbies in my experience, I could focus on other, local things instead. Everything else I feel would just be varying degrees of "less efficient" and/or have alternatives.
