Have you even bothered to read the reasoning for this change since the
last time you got your knickers twisted over it?

http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3105/#rationale

I don't see "piss everyone off" listed there anywhere.

Personally, I believe if you're writing code of any serious length,
you generally shouldn't be using 'print' anyway, using the logging
module allows for a lot more flexibility.

If you're bothered by having to type the parentheses while in the
interpreter, try using IPython with it's autocall mode turned on.
