People are being too literal. Of course it means that one rotten apple in the bushel basket can ruin them all, but it also means one negative or misbehaving person in a group can bring the whole group down.

Does one apple spoil the whole bunch?

yes it dose its command since The expression is: one bad apple will spoil the barrel. It refers to the fact that a bad apple's spoilage will spread to the other apples in the barrel by close physical contact with them. This is demonstrably true, but it is not instantaneous, and whether it invariably applies to other tightly packed groups - people, for example - is problematic. A related axiom, that we are known by the company we keep, seems to support the idea.

And, like, a whole apple has the potential to become a whole apple tree, while half an apple is just... well, half an apple.


Who invetid the iPod touch?

Apple invented the ipod touch! More specifically, it was the people working for apple who develop new products. The whole ipod touch is not all apple, though. Someone invented the touchscreen, someone invented the accelorometer, and so on. So the ipod touch was made by apple, but it is really a bunch of smaller inventions put together!
