Odysseus tells the cyclops Polythemus his true name, after blinding Polythemus.
the cyclops was intimidating to odysseus at first. Yet, the cyclops was kind until Odysseus took advantage of him and blinded him....to get to the point.. the cyclops was an idiot and was kind and welcoming to Odysseus who told him his name was nobody so when asked who blinded him, the cyclops replied nobody
Odysseus blind the Cyclops. The way he does this, is that he had seen some large logs burning in the cave. So, Odysseus and his crew had managed to lift up one of the logs and shove the burning end of the log into the eye of the Cyclops, which does NOT kill him, but does blind him.

He thought it was a waist of time and that it was stupid,
To trick the Cyclops. Odysseus tells Polyphemus (cyclops) that his name is "no body", so when he stabbed cyclops in his eye, he would yell "no body is hurting me! No body stabbed me!"
After Polyphemos (the cyclops) is blinded, the cyclops yell out to his father (Posiedon) and asks him to kill Odysseus and his crew. And if its not the gods will to kill him, then make his journey long and drawn out for a long time, and make it painful and bad too. He did that to get revenge.
