In addition to this, you did not use [code] tags, and with a tiny bit more effort your posted code could have been genuine Python.
Finally, your question is a poor one: it doesn't apply to all languages, so you should be specifying which languages you want to discuss; and if you meant FIOC, specifically, the code you posted shows that you don't actually understand the issue.
In conclusion, {expert1 back to wherever, please.}
1 Traditionally, expert is defined as b.i.o.u, whereas the back to /α/ (for some α) usually uses m.o.u or m.i.o.u, so interpret this expression as you will.
OP, do you actually have a point or are you just an idiot? Wait a minute... let's see
tripcode email (fake, no doubt) picture unrelated; this is a text board. <- imageboard quality can't spell singles out a `problem` and proceeds to only provide half a solution
Whereas this ordering is debatable, it doesn't matter as, with a tiny bit more effort, you could have used valid SexpCode to express this:
{define expert m.i.o.u}{expert back to wherever, please.}{define expert b.i.o.u}

I have no problem with this. Python has reasonable justification for using self like they do, though I also admit to not always accepting it without a grumble; besides, you only have to perform this silly trick when you def a method.

You don't understand what that self is in Python.
And for fuck's sake, if you can't even remember Python's syntax, at least fucking look it up before complaining about it.

Firstly, why do you have the pass? It is superfluous, which is pretty stupid considering your position.
Two, while I too disagree with explicit self, how does your proposal effect monkey patching?
Thirdly, why did you generalise to include `this` and others, when not all languages follow the python model?

Actually, it only answers 1 and 3. Although, the answer to 2, namely "it fucks it up unless python decides to go the ruby route which won't happen", is a corollary

I included 'this,' because its the samething. in a language that can use indentation to derive scope, making self implied would be easy.
I've never made a Monkey Patch so I can't comment,

Not every language obeys the same scoping rules as python. Most, as far as I am aware, allow you to specify privately scoped variables for the class and it's instance. Secondly, python does not use indentation to derive scope. (denote may be a more accurate term, but that's still wrong). Scope in python is semi-dynamic.
Scope in python is semi-dynamic.
Now that I think about it, that's a misleading way of putting it. It's not at all dynamic in that you don't look for bindings in the call stack. Mutable scope? fuck it, who cares

I'd just call it "seriously fucked up scope" and leave it at that.
In Java, using the keyword 'this' is actually resmarted because it lets the internal variable and its parameter be named the same thing. This is great if you use an IDE like Eclipse where you can mouse over the function and read the parameters.

He uses an IDE!
If you don't take advantage of every available super on top of the this as far as object variables are concerned, you just aren't trying terribly hard to be efficient.

Actually with a decent laptop you can use the touchpad (or nipple-mouse) without taking either hand off the keyboard.
And if you take a day or two getting used to a touchpad they're quite convenient. I can point, click, drag, and even scroll in all four directions while keeping both hands on home row, just by reaching my thumbs downward slightly.
Keyboards are useless for programming. All you need is :
- a mouse
- A ching-chong character input system
- A ching-chong programming langage (bro-tip : RUBY)
