I never have any desire to descant with anyone about anything, since I prefer to keep my conversations short and sweet.

A debate almost always requires you to descant with an opponent for a long time, since explaining a point of view can rarely be done quickly.

I never told jokes to my Dad, since he would always dive into a lecture and descant for nearly a full hour on some nonsensical life lesson.

I would have descanted with the friend I hadn’t seen in three years, but unfortunately I was in a big rush and I had to promise that we would catch up later.

I’d rather not descant with other people about subjects I dislike, since I would rather not talk about such things even for a short amount of time, never mind a long one.
