If you ever - as in my case - quoted a textbook to your students claiming that pointwise convergence of Fourier series for piecewise continuous functions is difficult and subtle, you'll feel stupid after reading Paul Chernoff's two-page paper "Pointwise Convergence of Fourier Series."
I can't find a free online copy of it, but you should be able to read it here with university access: JSTOR (Actually, you can see the first page for free, which already proves the main result.)
(Or get it from the library: The American Mathematical Monthly, Vol. 87, No. 5 (May, 1980), pp. 399-400.)
EDIT: There is a free copy here: http://math.berkeley.edu/~strain/118.S10/chernoff.pointwise.convergence.of.fourier.series.pdf
