With LGBT Pride Month upon us, comedian Matt Bellassai sheds a few tears for straight friends who may never be able to fully participate in the festivities.

In a video posted to Facebook Thursday, Bellassai reminds viewers that "every year, hundreds of thousands of brave men and women are born who will never know the joy of being queer." These people may never know all the words to "And I Am Telling You" from the Broadway show and movie Dreamgirls. They may even find themselves obsessed with which restroom strangers are using, Bellassai says, taking aim at a North Carolina law that prevents transgender people from using public restrooms matching their gender identity.

"Your whole day spent thinking about where complete strangers piss. Your whole day!" Bellassai says, pityingly.

Watch Bellassai prove that it doesn't just "get better," it is better.
