Of Pop Art and Random Quotations

I decided to endeavour to draw a pop art person. We have a giant one in our foyer and I used her for inspiration. Sorry, the pictures kind of bad. 
Her quotation is: ' I know how you must feel, Brad...' We have added a hilarious continuation of that on a post-it note... She says, "But I need a girls weekend without you and the six kids..." and Brad's reply: "Deal with it babe, you married me, I need to go watch the game."

That's what I love about pop art. You never know what they're talking about, so you are left with a thousand questions! I also saw a pop art once where the girl is drowning, and she says something along the lines of "Oh, whatever! I would rather drown than ask Brad for help!"
I sketched our pop art to see the general design. Mine looks a bit more perplexed...

Then I drew my own. This is a beginning sketch.
I don't know what she's going to say. I'm probably going with "If only I could actually believe you..."

If anyone who is reading this has seen the show 'Bones', doesn't she look so much like Angela?
I will show you the finished piece in like 5 weeks when i actually finish drawing all those thousands of dots...

But the question still stands: Who on earth is Brad??
