A mean streak refers to an unkind or cruel tendency that forms one part of an individual's character. It does not mean the person is hostile every minute, but rather that deliberate unkindness surfaces repeatedly under certain conditions.
My neighbor seems cheerful when we meet on the street, but he has a mean streak when anyone parks near his driveway.
