In the group I was stationed with, we mostly talked about how Clarisse is a unique character in the book. She seems to take things people don't tend to think about, and make a bigger deal with it. For example, when she was walking with Montag in the rain, she was saying how "The rain feels good" and "Rain even tastes good." During the time the book takes place, the people there don't really think about things such as that.
Another example of how Clarisse has very unique characteristics, is with the dandelions. She talks to Montag about how those yellow weeds are to determine if someone is in love, just by rubbing it it under their chin. Montag has never heard of something like that, and tries it out. In my opinion, I don't think he understands how someone could even think about things like this.
