The Service That Friends Provide for You Too Much

The Isaclamons are a group of people who try to avoid the judgment of others. The author says this is symptomatic of modern amnesia, where we're able to conveniently forget about all the mistakes we make in our lives and just move on as though nothing has really happened. When Clamont's does hear laughter at his actions, he comes up with a new strategy: He trolls those whose judgment he's trying to avoid by saying stuff that no serious person would say.
