We already have one. Just retcon the acronym to: Arranging Amorous Relationships Only Among Dedicated Singles

Leave the Cloudfare check up... dating is for humans only, not clankers.

Why has the AL 13 bypass of Phil Campbell/Bear Creek/Haleyville, AL, never been completed?

Have you tried building a bypass with soup?

What's the best highway for woodchucks to chuck wood onto?

It depends.  How much wood would they be chucking?
Fortunately for the rest of us, woodchucks can't actually chuck wood. That bit of doggerel has an "if" in it.

Thank you for explaining the joke :)

"Another one bites the dust" - because eventually the grooves in the pavement will make it deteriorate into dust.

This one, as long as I don't ever need to drive on said road.

"You know, you never have a guaranteed spot until you have a spot guaranteed."
—Olaf Kolzig, as quoted in the Washington Times on March 28, 2003,
commenting on the Capitals clinching a playoff spot.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"
—Kolzig, to the same reporter a few seconds later.

The pre-1888 version of Symphony No. 8 in C Minor (WAB 108) by Anton Bruckner.  I'm surprised no one else suggested it.

Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture.  The road will need to have carefully-positioned potholes so vehicles can simulate the cannon fire.

John Cage's Silence.

Silence is a book, not a song.  You're probably thinking of 4'33".

You know, I suppose the worst answer to this question would be a song that involves random chance—such as many by John Cage—because how would you incorporate that into the design of the pavement?  For example, Imaginary Landscape No. 4 (March No. 1) would be really hard to pull off.
