A plot of Weierstrass's monster with a=1/3 and b=21, over the range -2 < x < 2. The "curve" is blood red on a stark white background. It appears to be shaped like a sine wave, with additional levels of sine wave superimposed.

Here are three plots showing the first 1000 terms in the sum (over [-2,2], [-0.2,0.2], and [-0.02,0.02] ) using the values a=1/3 and b=21 from Weierstrass's original proof.

As you study the plots, a hideous truth reveals itself.
