Do something extremely petty like destroying an affordable housing program that otherwise has wide public support: Let’s say you have some uncivilized Council colleague like Tammy Morales who has spent two years carefully planning a program that cuts red tape for developers and non-profits who want to work together on building sorely needed affordable housing in Seattle – and it doesn’t even cost the city a dime!

Then maybe next time they’ll be more civil by not telling the public the truth about you.
