Depending on which way I'm driving home, sometimes I park on the other side of the road. Sometimes I'm there for a few days in a row. Our street is filled with things like that. Sometimes I come home and my across the street neighbor is parked on the side of the street of my house. That's okay too. If they live on the block and want to park in a free space, that's fine by me. I've never seen anyone in our neighbourhood get upset over which house the car was parked in front of. It doesn't mean you are a dick when you park there. It means you took an open space on a public street.

That can work, too. I think the problem a lot of people in this thread are talking about is more when there are unwritten rules that everybody follows, except for one or two rogue a-holes. You kind of have to fall into line with your neigbourhood's way of doing things.
