Morphology

coomer = coom (semi-transparent) = coom + er

The word is a regular agentive formation from the verb 'coom' (coom + -er = one who cooms), which is a predictable morphological process.

Etymology

The word coomer is internet slang for a person seen as addicted to online porn and constant masturbation. It comes from the crude slang coom, which comes from cum, 'sexual release', plus the agent ending -er, so think 'one who cums a lot', and that's why the word labels someone seen as lacking self-control.
