There are very few places I actually park my bike since it is mostly a toy and not used so much for commuting/transportation.

Gym - sidewalk
Work - parking spot (teachers park away from the school where there is tons of parking so no need to worry about taking a spot)
Stopping to eat after a ride - parking spot...but I am always with the hubby so we have two bikes for one spot.

I never park in a Handicap space or crowd one, but in a large lot, say Walmart for instance, I park in regular parking slot as a last resort. There are usually places that are safer that don't infringe on anyone else to park. If I do park in a parking space I try to leave the bike out far enough so that some fool won't swing in and nail my bike... and then back up and take off.

It varies for me. I normally just park in a spot since I usually park towards the back anyways (Cage or bike) cause I don't mind walking. But sometimes I park in odd ball locations. At a local chinese restaurant I'll park on the sidewalk when I pick up food cause I'm in there for a short time. And at a local publix there is an ATM I often use. I'll pull up on the sidewalk on my bike. Stop the bike at the ATM an use it then drive off.

Which I've used the drivethrough on my motorcycle before too. I just go with the flow I guess.

At school we have motorcycle parking so I park there when I can. At work I park near an island next to the bosses but they don't care. Hell I've done wheelies in the parking lot with them there watching.
