When Functions Break Your Brain

When Functions Break Your Brain
Ever notice how mathematicians get increasingly dramatic about their weird functions? The Dirichlet function gets a casual "OK" because it's Lebesgue integrable but nowhere continuous—like finding out your date can't swim but makes amazing pasta. Then the Weierstrass function demands attention with its "HOL' UP" because it's continuous everywhere but refuses to be differentiable anywhere—basically the mathematical equivalent of someone who looks perfectly normal but has absolutely no chill. But the Fabius function? That smooth-talking infinitely differentiable yet nowhere analytic tease sends mathematicians into full psychedelic meltdown mode. It's like discovering your calculator has been secretly plotting world domination this whole time. These pathological functions are why math professors drink.
