  I start my USE variable with "-*" and add in stuff that I need, i.e.

USECPU="mmx mmxext sse sse2 sse3 ssse3"
USEOTHER=" X a52 aac bzip2 cxx dga dri exif ffmpeg flac fortran gallium gif intel jpeg mng mp3 mpeg ncurses nptl nptlonly nsplugin offensive ogg opengl openrc png posix readline ssl theora threads tiff tools truetype vim-syntax vorbis xcomposite webm x264 xpm xv xvid zlib"
USE="-* ${USECPU} ${USEOTHER}"

...plus I also have some entries in package.use
