Cupid is a figure in Roman mythology, the god of desire, affection, and love. He is often depicted as a winged cherub with a bow and arrows, using the arrows to inspire love and desire in people. The holiday Valentine’s Day is associated with Cupid and the celebration of romantic love.
People crack jokes about Cupid because of the whimsical and sometimes comical nature of the idea of a winged cherub firing arrows to inspire love and desire. Love and relationships can be a source of humor, especially when things don’t go as planned. Additionally, the cultural portrayal of Cupid as a baby-faced, chubby angel with a bow and arrow can also make for a humorous image. People also make fun of Cupid’s role in the commercialization of Valentine’s Day.
