Means achieved orgasm, reached orgasm, climaxed sexually. To use "came" or "cummed" for an orgasm in the past tense? People actually get into arguments about this.
1. One argument is that since "cum" is pronounced same as "come" it's only natural to use the past tense of "came".
2. OTOH: A sportscaster would not say, "The batter flew out to left field." If the batter hit a pop fly, the sportscaster would say, "The batter flied out to left field." "Flew" in this case is absurd (except for a Red Bull commercial!). So by analogy "cummed" is acceptable.
In this writer's opinion, either "came" or "cummed" is acceptable. If you want an alternative that doesn't sound like a sexologist uttered it, there's always climax/climaxed. "I just orgasm'ed" is possible, too, if a bit stilted.
This is truly a case that argues for liberality of usage among even the most conservative speakers of American English. You do yourself and the language harm to over-scruple, and your sex life might suffer, too!

"Oh dang, I think I just came." "You mean you don't know?"
"You cummed in my mouth. You said you wouldn't." --
"Oh shit, I just cummed early." "Don't worry, big fella, you'll live to come again."

1. Southernism. Adds a certain repugnance to describe an idea, remark or occurrence that fell flat, killed conversation, was socially unacceptable, or went over like the proverbial lead balloon.
2. Similarly, a gauche, socially inept or unwelcome person who has a stultifying effect on social gatherings, or, by extension, was involved in some futile or hugely unpopular effort.

1. -- "All I did was tell one harmless little dirty joke and the whole room went silent. Apparently I had crossed some kind of taboo. No one even chuckled at the joke; it was a veritable turd in the punchbowl. I felt like one too, since the whole party immediately seized up and everyone stared at me."
2.(a) -- "There we were discussing local politics, and who shows up uninvited and parks himself right in the middle of our group? Little Georgie, the mayor's brat, who has an unerring sense of inappropriateness. I'd rather see a turd in the punch bowl than have to deal with that nuisance."
(b) "Practically everyone in town was in favor of a weeknight youth curfew, but as usual our "freethinking" pastor went contrary and opposed it. He didn't change anyone's mind. I think he's a jinx! A turd in the punch bowl of civic affairs."

Plural of "Pornality" (see definition).
Pornalities are words or expressions formed by fusing an older saying (usually trite or banal) with a new element to form a new meaning, usually more risque or graphic:
Examples:
With simple juxtaposition: "What can I do for you?" becomes, "What can I do you for?"
Fusion (sometimes called portmanteau) of two words:
TV's Bart Simpson fused CRAP + FANTASTIC and got CRAPTASTIC.

“PORNALITY” comes from PORN + BANALITY, a misheard or misunderstood (if clichéd) expression that takes on a more graphic or sexualized meaning:
Examples --
HARD-AND-FAST solution becomes “HARDEN-FAST” SOLUTION;
NO-HOLDS-BARRED (wrestling) becomes “NO HOLES BARRED” (stick it anywhere!);
NIP IT IN THE BUD becomes “NIP IT IN THE BUTT";
and, a pornality deliberately scripted for television:
CORNISH GAME HEN became "CORNISH GAY MEN" as mishead by Dick Solomon (John Lithgow) on NBC-TV's "Third Rock from the Sun" (1996-2001).

A vicious and very hardy feral animal that can withstand attacks, stings, and even snake bites yet keeps on killing and eating. Metaphorically, an assistant or political operative who takes a similar "no-holds-barred" approach and is always on the attack despite attacks and reprisals.

Roughousing, sometimes mock-wrestling, usually between two boys of similar age. "Horseplay" at first glance looks like actual fighting or wrestling until the more playful "fooling around" element become visible, but horseplay sometimes can deteriorate into real fighting.
A Midwestern urban regionalism means the same but includes a "get your back" connotation: grabass. No one considers that homoerotic.

"I told you, boys, no horseplay standing in line. You're not getting into the theater if you don't stop fooling around like that."
