millennial pause

when someone (specifically a millennial) starts recording, freezes for a second to make sure its recording, and then continue what they were doing. kinda like when your watching the news and it flips the camera to a news reporter overseas or something and they kind of just stand there for an awkward few seconds and then start talking.

"(few seconds of silence)...hey guys! so today we are going to (blah blah blah)"
