He's an overweight angel aiming a bow and arrow at you to inspire you to fall blissfully in love. I mean, let's face it. Cupid's arrow is a weapon that literally and metaphorically could be the death of you. But all jokes aside, do you even know why we actually celebrate Valentine's Day? I didn't think so.
