You actually can stop the time by snapping you fingers, but it stops time for the entire universe, including yourself, with the exception of one single observer on some unimportant planet in the Andromeda galaxy. After 100 years from the POV of that observer, time resumes again.
We could have a whole vent diagram of people than stop time, start time, or be immune to it. Imagine just going out for drinks with friends when times stops. But this has happened before so you walk across town, go in some dudes living room, and force his fingers to snap.
“Ah! Oh it’s you. Time stopped again?” “Yup” “Alright. Well hopefully whoever’s stopping time this time doesn’t REALLY like to snap.” “Hopefully. Well might be seeing more of me again. Bye!”
Various events around the universe occur on human timescales. If time stopped for use, we would effectively skip ahead on the view of them.
I actually think we could reliably catch 1 second time stops. Scientists monitor various pulsars. They spin multiple times a second, throwing off radio wave pulses. If all of them suddenly went out of sync with our clocks, it would definitely be noticed. It might take several, however, to prove it wasn’t a weird hardware glitch.

Would you even be able to tell?
Wouldn’t you just keep snapping your fingers, wondering why it wasn’t working? You wouldn’t notice time stopping.

It could be happening for real right now and you wouldn’t know it.
You’d notice an angry creature from Andromeda punching you in the face and threatening yo break your fingers tho…
Entire universe no. Stopping this particular galaxy and not the others, the average Joe wouldn’t notice. But I think the astronomers could tell?
How would astronomers be able to tell?
Because after moving very slowly and steadily for just about forever, the other galaxies will suddenly make a jump of like ten thousandth of a degree.
I don’t know how many light years the nearest edge of this galaxy is, but I’d wager it would take some time for the jump to be apparent to us.
