Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker offers a shrug of acceptance: fittings loosen and drop out constantly, because the world is flawed. Breakage is treated as normal rather than as a personal failing or catastrophe. The remark is casual and matter-of-fact, turning imperfection into a routine condition to live with.
