How can I clear the que of buttons pressed, so not to accidently hit enter for something that the user hasn't even seen yet?

I'm using:

for event in pygame.event.get():

The queue of buttons pressed? You may have to re-phrase that, or provide more detail into what kind of button you're talking about here

If you press (up left up left down right down) it'll que all those buttons in to pygame.event . Then when in the loop it reaches 'for event in pygame.event.get()' it takes all the buttons that were pressed and executes accordingly in the for loop. I want a way so at any time I want, anywhere, I can destroy all the buttons that were already pressed. I tried running an empty for event in pygame.event.get() but, all it did was keep the buttons.

I thought it was up, down, up, down, left, right, left, right, A, B, A, B, Select, Start. Sorry I know I am new here but I couldn't resist

Did you check the docs?
http://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/pygame_event.html#clear
That might be useful.

Oh sorry, I should have came back to this topic. I figured it out. Just simply:

(Toggle Plain Text)

for event in pygame.event.get():"void"

You are wrong. It's up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, Start.
Perhaps...

Nevermind, I don't quite know what I'm talking about. Creating the empty would be all I could have done.

I could swear it was Up, Down, Left, Right, A, B, C, Start...
