One thing that is a bit laborious in python are object initializers:

self.attr1 = field1
self.attr2 = field2

In VB one can do:

with self
.attr1 = field1
.attr2 = field2

(or something like that -- dont exactly remember the syntax)

Pascal is another language with a construct like that, and there's a FAQ for
it:

Less than useless, now what?
