If those are the only event types you are interested in across your
whole program, then the most efficient and convenient method is to use
set_allowed():
http://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/event.html#pygame.event.set_allowed
This will stop any other event type going into the queue. This means you
don't need to process the other events in your loop, like with your
get(typelist) method. But, it also means the queue will never fill up,
and you won't have to worry about clearing it. With only the event types
you want allowed to enter the queue, you can just use a plain
event.get() to get everything, as it will only include the allowed
events.
